As noted I had confirmed in several places - I lost money canceling my prepaid order on an 1140 as well.
as far as sources - I had a document (I could not find) that lined up the various functions of the MXRs and AVMs and this was shown - this doc i could not find on the anthem AVM site when I looked today.
also confirmed by Zoltan Balla a Paradigm spurce of info - With whom I interfaced and is working on stuff related to the new AVMs and the poor 60 review.
‘here’s another exchange with Anthem:
Hello Duraace9sp,
Analog Direct is not available on the MRX series, so it always be processed by the internal DAC. There is no workaround for this as this is the intended use.
