Best A/V Receivers on the Market

Why choose an A/V receiver? With an A/V receiver, everything you need to drive a music and home theater system is contained in one component. They are a space-saving, cost-effective alternative to separates (i.e. a preamplifier, A/V processor and separate external power amplifier). Anthem MRX receivers continue to win awards for their sound quality and ease of integration, and best of all, include ARC®—the Anthem Room Correction system. Read more about this exciting technology below.

Control at your fingertips! The MRX Series Control App controls all MRX 710/510/310 A/V receivers from your iOS device – download for free on the Apple App Store (for iOS devices).

Do I have options? With Anthem you always have options. You can purchase award-winning Anthem separates: a power amplifier (or multiple amplifiers!) to drive your speakers and an A/V processor to select the source (i.e. DVD, Blu-ray player, etc.), decode surround sound, control volume, manage bass, process and/or down-convert video content and send it to the TV/display, send audio to the amp(s), send music to other zones in the house, and control other system devices.

Either way, you can’t go wrong. It comes down to preference and budget. However, paired with Paradigm speakers, MRX receivers do it all! Now in their second generation, they are a simple, direct and economical route to outstanding music and home theater.

Why ARC® Remains The Best Room Correction System On The Market

What’s New in ARC® 1M

  • Connects via ethernet.
  • A higher level of digital signal processing allows for even greater precision in correction curves.
  • Print ‘before and after’ room-measurement graphs.

Why ARC® continues to be important

Even when the finest speakers are perfectly positioned, the room can have a dramatic impact on sound quality. Room dimensions, dead spots, archways, even furniture can turn a room into an additional instrument adding unwanted coloration and resonances.

ARC® adjusts for the room’s effect on the speakers in a way that mimics our hearing. This way your Anthem gear and Paradigm speakers can do what they do best: allow you to lose yourself in the music or movie.

How does ARC® do what it does?

  • ARC® analyzes each speaker’s in-room response then sets output levels, crossover frequencies and correction parameters for each.
  • ARC® applies correction for up to 7 channels plus the sub!
  • Unlike other room correction systems, ARC® allows for multiple microphone measurements. Multiple mic positions allow for peaks and nulls to be identified allowing for far more accurate room correction.
  • ARCuracy! The connected PC’s 64-bit floating point processor calculates the correction curves to the n’th degree of accuracy.
  • Separate configurations for music, movies or any other application where more than one configuration is useful.
  • ARC® applies correction to peaks and dips in room response – a far more natural and accurate response tackling both!
  • Fully automated or manual setup – with ARC® you choose!
