Unused amplifier channels can be reassigned to Bi-Amplify the front speakers, drive surround or presence speakers, or for second zone needs (available on the MRX 1140 and MRX 740 models). Configure the amplifier channels to suit your system and fully optimize the final sound quality with the ARC Genesis system.

Robust integration

The latest Anthem MRX series includes external management and IP control capabilities that allow for easy customization and compatibility with third-party integration solutions, providing IP control capability for major third-party control devices.

Design

Anthem has a clear mission: to design, develop and manufacture audio/video devices that deliver cutting-edge performance and usability at an affordable price. This is achieved by spending thousands of hours selecting and testing components, meticulously designing custom circuit topologies, and equipping them with a robust power supply that ensures long-term quality and reliability. This is made possible by the Paradigm/Anthem Research Center team, which has decades of experience in the industry.

Anthem Remote app

The Anthem Remote app uses Wi-Fi to simplify settings management for supported Anthem devices. The app provides controls for volume, mute, input selection, power management, listening modes, bass, treble, level adjustments, menu navigation, and Anthem Room Correction (ARC).

ARC Genesis

ARC Genesis is the latest software that works with many ARC-enabled Anthem or Paradigm products. New features include support for both Mac and Windows operating systems; new target curve adjustments such as deep bass and high frequencies; improved algorithms and more.

ARC Genesis is backward compatible with many Anthem and Paradigm products that support ARC or PBK technology. For a complete product list, visit AnthemARC.com. This third generation of Anthem Room Correction software represents a significant leap forward in room correction, offering the most comprehensive feature set to date. ARC Genesis transforms the sound quality of compatible speakers or electronics while preserving the unique character of the room.

Dedicated digital signal processing (DSP) programming works in conjunction with a calibrated microphone (included with many ARC and PBK products) to deliver amazing improvements to the sound you hear.
