Anthem Room Correction

Anthem Room Correction is the end result of the Athena project developed by Canada’s National Research Council. Which gave us more hope than usual. We’ve always doubted the microphones in room correction systems especially, clearly critical to success but rarely of any real quality — how much of a receiver’s budget would a company spend here given it’s a one-off setting which a good many users may never even employ? Anthem has invested in better microphones (pictured) for the latest range, in addition to software improvements.

You head to anthemarc.com to download the required software; the online manual indicated the MRX units require the beta version, but the website itself supersedes this advice, pointing you to the new ARC Genesis.
