well,once you have it in hand you will thank me . The run of the mill recievers people buy just cant hold a candle to AVM60 or XMC-1 they are on a whole other level. I felt the same way nick and mojo did it was like a veil being lifted, life changing.DAMN this hobby LOL Ive been doin the math for ATMOS, could make a grown man sob.

What happened to the days when I could go to Krazy Kiley's in Saskatoon or Advance in Winnipeg and buy a Kenwood for $100 and be elated? Now I have $10K of gear and I'm always wondering what I'm missing.

We ate from the tree of music knowledge and are now paying the price.

Woah Gibbys is expensive if you look around could save a ton. Especially with all the sales starting A.S.A.P.
Attempted adding atmos channels via a older A\B amp. darn thing gave me feedback {won't play nice without isolators}. Though I think my ADA1250 is overkill for height, and it's 3 channel that works so well with my M80s/VP160 guess I'll have to test it out.

Honestly i wouldnt use a receiver for its amplifiers just a bunch more circuitry to mess up the sound. Why spend that kind of money on a highend component then put it through something that will ruin its design. Brendo ,what shop did you get your Anthem from.

3299. at the Sound room in BC

I went to a place called WestCoast A.V. Gallery east of Soundroom.
Main street Chinatown neighbourhood. Almost across from the Greyhound/Train via rail stations.
Nice little place quiet more of a designer setup integration place.

I wasn't trying to add receiver it's a crest audio VS900 450x2 WPC power amp. It doesn't want to play nice much ground hiss.
My ADA plays well on its own. Have it running my main 3.
Haven't used the Crest since got my ADA.

The Anthem I have is 7.1 with 11.2 pre outs so for atmos 5.4 or 7.4 need a power amp. for heights. Now I'm content with 5.2.2.
may try again with ADA instead of just trying to add my old equipment to mix.

Sorry, i thought someone had suggested using your previous receiver to use for power, i read too many threads. Funny the crest doesnt play nice, is it a pro amp? Are the amps in the anthem assignable I would use the crest to power some MBM's
