I have the Marantz 7705 and i love the ease of use. I do agree with you it just works and the menus are easy to navigate. I love the app and I have found it so useful ( it has really helped me get the sound tweaked to the point of satisfaction ) I am surprised at the price point of the Anthem that the wi-if is not buttoned up and for consumers like me a product can become overly complicated and take away from the joy of ownership. K-pace great video and I am looking forward to your take on this products redeeming qualities, stay safe and awesome!!

I’ve had Yamaha, Arcam, Nad and Anthem mrx720. The new anthem was the worst experience ever with a receiver. Just to connect it to WiFi it requires a NASA engineer degree 🤦🏻♂️. The MRX720 to me sounded better and was a lot easier to use. I’ve always stayed away from denon and marantz for some strange reason and just found a crazy deal on a sr7015 for $1000 brand new and to my surprise it totally surpassed my expectations. Easy to setup, great separation when watching movies, my Spotify connect sounds better than my Arcam and the app works great. Anthem has dropped the ball for me. I was curious on your thoughts and you are correct

Pure Direct/Direct is hype. Going through a home theater processor or receiver really degrades the audio quality of two channel music. There is always some type of Dolby Digital processing mucking up the sound quality. Anyone serious about good two channel audio should connect directly to the DAC and use a passive XLR switch/switches to go from music to video. The best (and most expensive) option is to use a very high end two channel preamplifier (PS Audio BHK Signature Preamp for example) with Home Theater Bypass. The home theater processor or receiver should be removed from the chain for critical HiFi two channel listening. For background MP3/Spotify lossy non-critical listening, Direct is fine.

I agree, I went back and forth with two setups, one for HT and one for 2-Channel audio. In the end after so many years of comparing and evaluating/testing I decided I needed my living room back, so I went full 2-Channel audio and just added a new big flat panel screen to my audio system with two speakers, NO subs, pre/pro, no multi channel amps, nothing like that. I'm extremely happy with my audio rig now, because I love my music first and movie watching second! Now I have MacBook Pro running Tidal, Oppo digital into PS Audio dac, Benchmark Dac 3, Benchmark HPA4 Line Amplifer, Benchmark AHB2 X2 in Mono mode, Equi-Tech 2000watt balance power modified by me, two separate 20amp electrical lines, Marten Duke 2 diamond speakers, all pure 99.999 solid silver cables Balance connection thruout. I'm staying up late for days, I just love the organic, natural sound with a level of neutrality and transparency I haven't heard in over 30 years as a phile. I had more expensive products from Pass Labs and Bryston etc that didn't deliver what I'm hearing today in 2021 and I'm just stunned at how far smaller, zero noise, zero heat audio components bring to the table, it's amazing.

not automatically measuring distances is unforgivable, setting proper distances is crucial especially for Dolby Atmos every system has electronic latency which makes using physical measured distances inaccurate until Anthem implement measuring distance, I use REW with acoustic reference timing to set my distances
@zyndeco6659 Жыл бұрын
100% correct, it's one of the biggest secrets no one talks about in calibration, remember at the end of the day these are mathematical equations and algorithms. My speakers are physically placed equal distance from the opposing speaker in real life, it wasn't until I found that magical spot where I placed the mic for calibration that the AVR registered all speakers (besides the center channel) equal distance apart, truly centered, magic happened. What really made all the difference is when both subs distance and level matched, subs drive so much sound because of the wattage people don't realize how critical it is to get them right! p.s. it's ok to reduce the LFE a little to blend in with the front stage.

It seems that the real problem with both units is music and it is really because digital music is so compressed that you only have very little of the original sound and the rest is lost in the digital spectrum of things. To get the best of both worlds it will require some work in the field of analog which is why I use very little digital music as in mp3 and other like music playbacks. All technology is not good for all areas. I am a electronic technician that graduated in 78 and as I was exiting the school we where told that the 80s will be the years of perfection and it can never replace the sound of analog music because it will remove most of the music in the digital stage. I am old school and I am a lover of digital age but not for my music which is why I still have my 1500 vinyl record that I purchased back in the day.

Great video, all the issues you stated with the the Anthem are echoed with most higher end band Pre pros /AVR s. Which lead me to believe if your a beginner coming into home theater, you would do better with one of the sound United. Pre pros or receivers(Marantz/Denon). I also upgraded from a Marantz SR8015 to a AudioControl XR4 two months ago. I haven’t messed with the Dirac yet but I hate that there was no onscreen display and to enable WiFi, my main router is upstairs and my home theater is in the basement. I had to get a 70ft Ethernet cable to get the iP address. The AudioControl sounds better but the Marantz was definitely more user friendly.

I think that boils down to a personal preference.... If you're not a hifi person sure Anthem.... I personally think Marantz and ARCAM are the best. ARCAM being because it has the best in the market (again opinion and some test in the market) when it comes to harmonic distortion. If you are some one who wants to using bluetooth and not audiophile system then ARCAM if not for you as they focus purely on clarity and quality rather than convenience of bluetooth or streaming music, but I believe newer models are releasing this year that start to reach some of those crowds. Marantz depending on the one you go with makes out to be the best for me, not to say Anthem is bad and not great because it totally is. Music is going to sound great on all of these if you have the right source and wires.

The only Anthem I consider maybe better than any current Marantz highend was the prepro D2V... Since Anthem has really downgraded in term of quality... I've got in the past Denon/Yamaha/Pioneer...the AV8801 as prepro with XPR-5 Emotiva blocs...and lastly the Primare SPA23 4KVM ...To my taste my SR8015 is way above all I can have in the past (except for the Primare)... To each their ears😉... I've got too the Nad T778 in a second room to be honest it is really a piece of sh.... 🤬

I don't own Anthem but have heard it. I think it has a more aggressive sound, where Marantz is warm with the rolled off highs. I feel like using the audyssey app for 20.00 and implementing that curtain feature could give you the aggression you sometimes miss for HT.

Yes i agree marantz more user friendly but if you knew from the start how to set up wifi on anthem then its easy the problem is not anthem its the uses they don’t have any clue what there doing . As far as room correction audyy is poo absolutely garbage the arc is great room correction as for the distances go not everyone has that for your 2 subs so its nothing for people to worry about and putting in your distances manually is much better more accurate

@@Samzep it tells you to download Google home app to continue setup. Once you do that you're on your own to figure out what to do from there. It also tells you to setup your anthem product with your anthem ip address. There are two address and one is easy to find one is not. The one that's not is the one you need. The one you need is never mentioned anywhere on the site or in the manual
