Channel Re-Assignment
The built in high performance amplifier modules can be configured in many ways to suit the specific speaker configuration. Unused amplifier channels can be re-assigned to Bi-Amplify demanding front speakers, power surrounds, presence speakers, or a second zone (Available on MRX 1140 and MRX 740).
Configure amplifier channels for your system's needs, then fully optimise the presentation with ARC Genesis.
