Anthem MRX-1120 Home Theatre Receiver

Regardless of the source or content, the MRX-1120 delivered a massive, detailed sound-stage with lashings of sonic impact. If I had to choose one word to describe the performance of Anthem’s MRX-1120, it would be ‘cinematic’. At the end of the day, this is what good home theatre is all about folks.

Anthem MRX 1120 Receiver Review

I gave up running separate components, with a preamp and thousands of dollars in amplifiers, to use the Anthem MRX 1120. Since I did that, I’ve not missed those prior components at all. The Anthem has proven to be a first-rate component capable of bringing out the best in the rest of my gear. ARC corrects the bass issues in my room while not making the sound any less clear. The soundstage was completely unified between the speakers and while watching Dolby Atmos content I was completely amazed how immersed in the audio I became. The Anthem MRX 1120 is a real reference quality receiver that can be the hub of any home theater. It makes the right choices in what features you need and leaves out the extra ones you will likely never use. I’m happy to have it powering my updated home theater and believe anyone after a reference quality receiver should look at it.

Anthem MRX 1120 Review

Overall, the Anthem MRX 1120 is a fabulously effective AV receiver, and Anthem’s sophisticated room correction is astonishingly effective. Once dialed in, the AVR sounds beautifully precise and balanced. Soundtracks are tight and involving: bass is deep and granite hard, while dialogue remains crisp and articulate. While this receiver may not tick all the feature boxes of better-known competitors, it delivers absolutely where it counts. This is surround sound unbound. And it’s glorious.

Anthem MRX 1120 A/V Receiver Review

...the MRX 1120, through countless hours of music listening and movie watching, provided the escape I was looking for without introducing any of the fatigue I’ve experienced with lesser products. You’d be hard-pressed to find a better-sounding solution short of going with separates. Highly recommended.

Anthem MRX 1120 A/V Receiver Review

To put not too fine a point on it, the Anthem MRX 1120 is the best home theater receiver that I have had the pleasure of ever using. It looks deceptively simple on the outside and while it might not have every last bell and whistle that some of its competitors do, the features it does have are the ones that matter and are well thought out. It’s defining characteristic though is its sound quality and the MRX 1120 is truly top shelf in this regard. I don’t think I’d be overstating it if I said that the sound quality you get from this unit is comparable to having separates from some other manufacturers.

Anthem MRX 1120 Dolby Atmos AV Receiver Review

In many ways, Anthem has redefined expectations around home cinema. For many brands, the category has simply become an arms race about features and functionality. Anthem has stripped all that back to offer a sublime level of performance allied to a truly sensational calibration and room EQ solution. The result is a fabulous home cinema centrepiece.

Anthem MRX 1120 11.2-Channel AV Receiver Reviewed

I only hesitate to call the MRX 1120's stereo performance "perfect" out of fear that Anthem will top it with its inevitable fourth-generation MRX lineup and I'll have to eat my words.

A single box solution for a full immersive setup

The MRX 1120 is also a very musical AV receiver, making it one of those rare beasts that is able to deliver a barnstorming performance with films and an equally subtle and effective performance with music.
