Have not heard the Anthem but as an Integra RDC-7 owner, I am one happy camper. Exceptional on both music and HT. The only unit I have ever seen with 2 multichannel inputs is The Dennon5800. What are you doing now to listen to both formats? You can use Y adapters, however I have never done this so I cannot comment if you loose any quality.Right now I only have DVDA, If I had SACD, I would run it direct 2 channel only. But I will be patient and wait for a Universal player, and or from what I understand perhaps in the future there will be an upgrade to connect the units digitally. {For that you will need alot of patience} This is a rather strong statement, but it is my opinion, when you hear how good the Integra sounds with a quality regular CD recording, your lust for SACD and DVA will lessen , because the regular CD will sound so good. Hope this helps.
Thoughts on the Anthem AVM 20 v. Integra RDC-7
I listen 60/40 music and HT and need a decent 2 ch abm. Looking for upgradability and performance? Use bass management only in HT?
It seems both have a large number of input but only I 7.1 input. I am running a multichannel SACD as well as a DVD-V/DVD-A player?
Interested in comments from members who have A/B'ed the two units?
Thanks
