Direct from ML or?I guess I'll give the ML version a shot. I can use analog in and out after my pre before my amp.

And it is confirm to be compatible with the paradigm link? I don't need airplay.Be careful. Make sure that the ML version will run ARC Genesis. It is listed on the ARC site as being compatible, but when I asked, ML said the Forte was not compatible.
Right? I couldn’t find that for either oneAnd it is confirm to be compatible with the paradigm link? I don't need airplay.
According to Anthem (Paradigm, Anthem and ML are all the same company), they're both compatible with arc genesis. See this link:Right? I couldn’t find that for either one
Thanks, there you go!According to Anthem (Paradigm, Anthem and ML are all the same company), they're both compatible with arc genesis. See this link:

I ordered the ML version a couple hours ago, I figured I could use airplay from itunes on my pc, I have a big library. I guess I'll find out when it comes in a couple days.To be clear, the Genesis ARC site lists both, the ML and Anthem units, as compatible.
However, as I’ve already written, a ML tech support rep advised me via voice mail that the ML was not compatible. When I called up Anthem tech support I was told that the Anthem was not Genesis compatible either. When I told the tech that the Genesis site listed the Anthem link as compatible he looked it up and agreed, but said he had no direct experience with the unit. It appears Anthem/ ML tech support do not know much about these boxes.
It might be best to email both ML and Anthem in an attempt to get a definitive answer.
Would anyone here who has successfully usEd one of these boxes with Genesis ARC please post their user experiences?
Edit: I’ve sent ML an email. Will report what they have to say.
I read through the first 8 or so pages and I have a couple questions.
1. Was the popping between tracks ever fixed with an update? Is it only when using toslink out or also analog? I could go either way with my setup.
2. Right now it's $199 for the Paradigm and ML version, is the only difference between them that the ML version has airplay?
3. If you set the volume to a specific level using the mute/volume down function, is that saved through power cycles?
It seems like this is a very good way to get into room correction on the cheap.
TIA.
OK, so I went and did more reading on ARC Genesis. It seems like the improvements are solely in the software on the PC side. These are quotes from Anthem:To be clear, the Genesis ARC site lists both, the ML and Anthem units, as compatible.

Thanks for the reply. I'll probably end up using it after my receiver before my amp, so it'll be analog in and out. It doesn't have enough inputs for me to use it on the digital side of the receiver.I still here pops, just not between tracks, but i never heard them between tracks. If you have gapless playback, you probably won't hear pops between tracks (I don't), but I do hear pops between apps so I'm guessing the popping is somehow related to gaps in signal. My setup is airport express optical out -> Paradigm optical out -> Mini DSP -> bullseye amp -> LX Mini.
Hope this helps.
I have both Paradigm and ML units and ARC works equally well on both.
ARC Genesis.Aee you using ARC Genesis, or the older version of ARC?
Great! Good to know that I don't have anything to worry about. Thanks.ARC Genesis.
Thanks. That settles it.ARC Genesis.
