The Anthem MRX 740 8K is the vital center of a high-performance entertainment system, meticulously engineered to deliver a seamless blend of power and precision. As the ideal middle ground in the award-winning MRX Series, the 740 8K provides a serious upgrade for both audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts. With 11.2 pre-amplifier channels and 7 amplifier channels providing a conservative 140 watts each into 8 ohms, this is a powerful and versatile receiver designed for uncolored, accurate performance.
Anthem’s MRX A/V receivers are built with an independent engineering philosophy focused on maximizing audio performance. The MRX 740 8K incorporates the newest version of ARC Genesis with a redesigned, more accurate calibration microphone, Anthem's intuitive Web User Interface, and robust integrated streaming support. It features object-oriented audio codecs with support for up to 11.2 channels, ensuring an expansive, immersive sound. The new electronics platform includes HDMI 2.1 with HDCP 2.3, offering 7 dedicated 8K HDMI inputs that support 8K/60Hz or 4K/120Hz pass-through, along with three dedicated outputs, including eARC.
At Anthem, we don’t just innovate; we engineer with intent. Every element of the MRX Series 8K is the result of careful design, rigorous testing, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. From the precision of our amplification stages to the integrity of our 8K HDMI platform, each feature is built on one guiding principle: to preserve the truth of the performance.
Our 8K HDMI 2.1 platform is not a feature list—it's a technical blueprint for next-generation entertainment. With 7 dedicated 8K inputs and 2 outputs, it ensures uninhibited signal flow at 8K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz. This is not simply about handling new formats; it is about guaranteeing the integrity of every pixel and frame, from source to screen. Features like VRR and ALLM are not afterthoughts; they are critical components of a platform built to deliver a fluid, high-fidelity experience, particularly for gaming.
Acoustics are a science. Our award-winning ARC Genesis Room Correction uses a precision microphone and advanced algorithms to solve—not mask—room issues, optimizing frequency response for peak performance. With four storable profiles, you get unmatched customization and control.
The MRX 740 8K leverages 32-Bit/768 kHz DACs to deliver every digital signal with precise fidelity, ensuring a dynamic, detailed, and truly pure listening experience.
MRX integrates the latest object-oriented audio codecs—including Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and IMAX Enhanced—not for marketing, but for the precise, three-dimensional spatialization they enable. Our system ensures every sound object is rendered with surgical accuracy, immersing you in an auditory landscape that is both vast and meticulously detailed.
At Anthem, we believe a system engineered for performance without equal should be effortless to command. We’ve gone to a meticulous degree to ensure no detail is overlooked, giving you absolute authority over your device from a phone, tablet, or laptop.
