When I first tipped my toes in the audio pool in the early 90's, I started out with Paradigm Monitor 9 speakers.

I still use an Anthem MCA 20 amp to drive my Usher X-719 speakers as the front Left and Right speakers in my HT rig. I also use a pair of Paradigm Mini Monitors and a Monitor S3 center channel in my Family room 3.1 setup

Any idea exactly when the Genesis release of ARC is due??..April 2019, but anyone have a more specific time?..Thanks...

New here, so be gentle. I have an Anthem AVM 60 for surround sound, but feeding into a McIntosh C2700 preamp in pass-through mode for the front speakers. I'm running subwoofer cable from the Mc to my subwoofer, but I'd also like to connect the Anthem to it. The Anthem has 2 outputs labeled "subs." Can each of these independently carry the full subwoofer information, or do I need to hook up cables to both outputs for a single subwoofer? (Another way of putting it is, could the Anthem sub outputs be used for 2 separate subwoofers?) Thanks.

I have an Anthem AVM 50 and I am running a McIntosh MC-240 as a Zone 2 amplifier for Stereo/Mono reproduction. The Zone 2 volume is limited. Is there a way around this?

Bump, I have an anthem 225i sitting on a shelf collecting dust and a pair of persona 7f speakers.

Yes both sub outs have the same signal at all times on an Anthem. I don’t know how your sub will be set up to receive a signal from both your digital pre and analog pre. Does it have an LFE input as well as stereo inputs?

Did you check in the Anthem setup menu under volume controls? There can be a max volume limit setting. I believe the max volume is +12 dB which may not be enough if you have a quiet source and low gain amp. Using a balanced amp with XLR cables will give you another 6dB.

Also there may be a zone 2 volume trim that needs adjusting. Check the front panel or remote controls. Adjust it while playing your music because trims are stored separately for different input signal types. I am going from memory so consult your Anthem user manual.
