How are the Anthem AVM 20 and AVM30?


Some people have said that they sound a bit on the bright side ? Opinions?
I don't need prologic II and am using a separate hi end 2 channel preamp for cd and phono...
I like my Mac MSD4 but need more crossover options than just full range and 80Hz.
Any other ideas other than the Anthem pieces for under $ 1,500 an Audiogon?

AVM 20 is extremely flexible, it is a useful pre-amp that has many features. Great value. I'd say it is neutral sounding - which might mean "bright" to some people.
If you already have a good 2 channel pre the Rotel RSP 1068 has tons of crossover settings independent for each speaker plus each speaker has its own tone controls. The Rotel has many great features for a cheap price, under $900 used I beleive, I own one and like you run a seperate 2 channel pre but for movies and in a pinch the Rotel can be lived with. Thje Rotel also does HDCD and has 7.1 multi channel inputs for SACD and such...........I know there is better but I dont overthink movies and like I noted many Pro's dont have as many options, and certainly not for this amount of cash.
