    Anthem AVM70 Review (AV Processor)

    The BEST feature on the Emotiva RMC-1 is the Dolby Upmixer. 2.0 channel content center channel and surround mixing is excellent, I cannot differentiate it from a native surround mix. This is a huge upgrade from PLII ! At first, the Denon X3700H Upmixer was underwhelming, sounding very much...
