    Any recent NAD or Marantz receivers dropout free?

    I've got an Ultra2 upgraded 9200 - I don't seem to have any drop-outs.

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    D1 - Software update version 1.10 is up (per Anthem) v1.10: 1. Added Dolby Pro Logic IIx (Movie, Music, Matrix, Games). Note that Pro Logic IIx can be applied even if input is 88.2 kHz or 96 kHz PCM, or with Analog-DSP when A/D converter is set to these rates. 2. Added THX Games...

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    Gary, Just as an FYI - One of the last few issues of S&V compared the AVM30 vs. the C2 and another controller. They put it on top overall. BUT - I would strongly suggest you get a chance to listen to them both and decide what features are important to you. Side-note: Having been able to...

    I want 6.1 sound! Lol not stereo

    Let me know how you make out ... I only tried through the tos-link ... considering the sPDIF and tos-link carry digital signal

    I want 6.1 sound! Lol not stereo

    Victor, What sound are you trying to get? Sound for the games in 7.1 or movies? If games, use the 3 mini-plug analog connections from the sound card and use the 7.1(5.1?) analog input on your receiver. You will need 3 vidcam cables (3 RCA connections to a mini-plug)to plug into the 3...

    Anthem D1 / AVM30 differences

    Hi Glenn, I'm pretty sure that the D1 will sound good with any amp - Levesque has me convinced to go to P5/P2 combination ;) (but I have certain requirements that I must meet - check out the D1/AVM30 thread in this forum) Currently I'm using 2 MCA20's and an MCA30 for 7 channel. I would...

    At Last! a High End pre and amp for music AND movies

    True enough ... but I was remarking against the title of the thread. But, I also wouldn't agree that having the DVD player do the duty is the best option either (even though it looks to be the only option) :wink:

    At Last! a High End pre and amp for music AND movies

    So I guess that moots the title of this thread - cuz the movie part is a bust :wink:

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    So .. while waiting for DPLIIx - a question came to mind... If the D1 upconverts DTS (and DD) to 24/192 -- does this have a detrimental effect if you are playing a DTS 24/96 medium? Maybe I'll ask Nick too :confused:

    Anthem D1 / AVM30 differences

    Someone had posted a similar question of comparing the AVM30 to the D1 in another forum. I pasted some excerpts of what was written there: ...seriously though, you may as well have asked if the base 6 cylinder Ford Mustang - can beat the V8 Mustang Bullet in a race. I don't know how long...

    Oooh .. Dolby PLIIx - is in beta now. Certain users on other forums are testing it out on the D1 now. I guess we should look forward to a software update soon (I hope)

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    Thanks guys, Nick gave me some pointers on what to be on the lookout for. (I'm hoping it's one of those) -as my AVM20 - was plugged in exactly the same way but was silent. :frowning:

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    Just out of curiosity, does your D1 buzz? - I can hear a distinct buzz at about 1 foot or less (due to the 2 toroidal transformers or the backlight?) - I know the AVM20 was an iron core transformer - but ran pretty much dead silent.

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    Ah ... more fuel to my fire Thanks Chris ;) - I'll go and check that one out as well. Mike, they (the store ;)) may have a D1 setup by Thursday or Friday. I was in on the weekend, getting the dimensions on the P5 - it's a few inches longer than the MCA! So, they said they're expecting a D1...

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    Hmm ... Things Tom needs to do to get the P5 1) have an electrician put in 2 new 20 amp cicuits 2) build a new brace to support the weight of the P5 (165 pounds(!) for that one alone - haven't even counted the weight of the P2 yet...) 3) sell my MCA amps 4) sell my car 5) then borrow the...

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    So .. just breaking in the D1 over the weekend :D Anthem tech support got back to me, something is up with the silkscreening, as they moved the 'upsampling' logo to the top right - somehow the DTS logo shrunk (or got shortened). My guess is that this may possibly be rectified on the...

    Thanks for checking Gene! Now I gotta find out from SFI why mine doesn't have it, or if this is just the 'new' logo(?)

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    Grr ;) - they had a P5 at my dealer and he was asking me if I wanted that put aside ... I said 'not yet' - then he asked me to lift it (as a joke!) Now, on another note - from my observations: Differences between the Statement A5 and MCA50 - is: a) blue light on A5 :D b) same specs to...

    Levesque, Gene, Does your D1 have the 96/24 in the DTS logo?

    Hi Gene, I'll do some research on Gemstone (and it's availability in Canada!) - thanks for the heads up! ../TC

    Well I'm quite sure the decision of getting a D1 won't be a bad choice. (Heck, if 'my wife' approves - everyone should have it made!) ;)

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    Mike ... are you kidding? The D1 was out of the box before I could get it down the stairs ;) So I've calibrated it, and noticed one thing immediately, in my environment. It plays louder at the same config/dimensions my AVM20 was at - by my guess 3.0 - 3.5 dB. Then I watched the...

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    Ok .. I just got it tonight ... Wow!! in 5 days too (I was told up to 5 weeks). Now, when I look at the manual picture - it clearly shows the DTS 96/24 in the logo, however on my Statement it does not have the 96/24. Does the unit have DTS 96/24 or is that in another release?

    The Anthem Statement D1/AVM30 Thread

    Well ... here it is I guess. Since there already is the AVM20 - thread, this is the successor thread. So, I don't have much to write yet (I'm preamp-less at the moment - waiting for my D1 delivery)- how many of us have upgraded from the 20? :D
