Emotiva RMC-1L Processor
£3,990.00
The RMC-1L is a Reference Level 3D audio surround sound processor/preamplifier with 16 discrete channels – designed from the ground up to serve as the nerve centre of a state-of-the-art home cinema and surround sound music system.
At Emotiva, we have an absolute passion for sound quality; it’s in our DNA. When we designed the RMC-1L, we aimed to deliver the same Reference-Caliber sound quality from movies that we demand from our favourite audiophile recordings. We engineered an innovative hardware platform from the ground up, combining powerful, cutting-edge digital audio technologies and meticulous classic analogue circuit design to deliver the highest quality, immersive audio experience. To control this advanced hardware, we developed an all-new proprietary operating system, which we carefully engineered to be both simple to use and incredibly flexible. Creating the entire system in-house gave us precise control over the design and construction process and continues to enable us to carefully fine-tune the features and capabilities of each of our processors. Many of these innovations were first showcased in our critically acclaimed XMC-1 processor.
The RMC-1L takes this technological innovation to the next level. The RMC-1L incorporates the latest 4k video switching capabilities and the most advanced surround sound decoding and processing. It also has sixteen channels of the latest digital audio to analogue conversion hardware to take full advantage of object-oriented surround sound formats – Dolby Atmos and DTS-X. 18 Gbps, bit-perfect video switching in the RMC-1L ensures you’ll get the best possible image quality from the latest HDR and DolbyVision 4k UHD content. The advanced audio decoding engine, audio processing hardware, and room correction options guarantee true audiophile sound quality and system performance in any room. The RMC-1L is not only a superb home theatre processor but is also a true audiophile stereo and multichannel audio component. It’s what makes the RMC-1L stand out from other processors on the market.
The RMC-1L fulfils our vision of what a high-end surround sound processor should be.
