Ресиверы — Emotiva BasX MR1

The BasX MR1 is an AV receiver from Emotiva, built with an exceptional 11 main channels plus two subwoofer outputs. This model represents Emotiva's ambitious current expression of home theatre receiver engineering, offering elaborate channel count for a large object-based surround installation.

Key specs that matter

The receiver drives 11 main channels plus 2 subwoofer channels, a comprehensive layout for elaborate Atmos or DTS -X configurations. Output power is 100 W into 8 ohms, rising to 130 W into 4 ohms. Rated bandwidth is 20 Hz to 20 000 Hz. Signal-to-noise exceeds 100 dB with distortion under 0.05%. Damping factor exceeds 500, a strong figure for the receiver category.

Sound and use context

Expect a controlled presentation across all 11 channels, with the high damping factor suggesting firm loudspeaker control unusual for a receiver at this level - reflecting Emotiva's characteristic value-focused engineering philosophy applied to an elaborate multichannel home theatre platform.

Pairing

The 11 main channels plus dual subwoofer outputs cover even elaborate object-based surround layouts without needing external amplification, considerably simplifying a complex home theatre installation into a single chassis.

Alternatives

Emotiva's broader XPA power amplifier range offers external amplification alternatives for buyers wanting to bypass this receiver's built-in amplifier stage for some or all channels, worth considering if a specific channel needs more power than this receiver's built-in amplification provides. Emotiva direct-to-consumer sales model, bypassing traditional retail markup, is part of why an elaborate 11-channel receiver like this one remains accessible relative to rivals with similar channel counts. A dealer conversation about specific speaker layout helps confirm this receiver comfortably covers a particular room configuration, and adequate ventilation space around the chassis is essential given how much heat 11 simultaneous channels can generate. Overall this remains a capable, value-focused choice for an elaborate multichannel home theatre. A dedicated or adequately rated mains circuit is worth confirming given the number of channels driven simultaneously. A dealer demonstration remains worthwhile before committing to any specific purchase. Cable and stand choices matter far less at this price point than confirming speaker layout compatibility.
