Anthem MRX 500 7.1 A/V Receiver

For my part, I'll take the Anthem's smooth and confident sound, substantial build quality and clean, well-integrated bass any day of the week. Do yourself a favor and audition an Anthem MRX 500 before making a decision on any receiver. You may find that the Anthem MRX 500 has everything you need and everything you want.

Great Buy

Anthem MRX 500 A/V Receiver

After setting up and using its built-in Anthem Room Correction, I think the MRX 500 is a fantastic receiver worth every penny of its price. Even if Anthem charged twice as much for the MRX 500, I would still think the price fair -- because of ARC

Anthem MRX 500 AV Receiver Review

I can say with confidence that the Anthem MRX 500 AV receiver is one of the greatest sounding receivers that I’ve had the pleasure of being entertained by. The on-board Anthem Room Correction system performed a noticeably better job of improving the sound in my room compared to the systems integrated in most, if not all, AV receivers that I’ve listened to in the past...Overall, you might be tempted to think that you’re listening to higher-end separates rather than an AV receiver – yes, the sound is that good
