Overview

Before you order another amp, try better processing.

The RMC-1L+ 16 Channel Dolby Atmos & DTS:X Cinema Processor is a true home theater processor that puts control first. You get 8K HDMI 2.1 switching for today’s sources, Dirac Live room correction across all sixteen channels for real-room balance, and support for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X Pro for effortless immersion. Reference Stereo mode keeps two-channel listening pure when the lights are low.

Compatibility is simple. Connect your streaming box, game console, and disc player to HDMI, then run a single cable to your 4K or 8K TV or projector. Feed your power amps with balanced XLR, add your speakers, and you are set. Web control, a solid metal remote, and home automation support make it easy to live with.

Common uses

• Building a serious 7.1.4 to 9.1.6 movie room with clean dynamics

• Gaming with 4K or 8K sources using fast HDMI 2.1 features like VRR

• Late-night two-channel sessions with Reference Stereo purity
