Product Description
Emotiva RMC-1L 16 channel AV processor has been designed from the ground up to deliver a high quality experience. A new proprietary operating system has been carefully engineered to control the RMC-1L advanced hardware in a simple and flexible way while the latest 4K video switching capabilities and advanced surround sound provide an immersive audio experience.
Perfect for Both Audiophiles and Home Theater Fans
The RMC-1L has been designed to deliver the same audiophile quality audio performance you would expect in a dedicated amplifier while also delivering bit-perfect video switching of the latest HDR and DolbyVision 4k UHD video content. The RMC1L also supports a multitude of channels that support the latest object-orientated home theater surround sound formats (including Dolby Atmos up to 9.1.6 and DTS:X up to 7.1.4). Additionally, the RMC-1L offers a full range of audio options, from pure analog playback in our audiophile Reference Stereo mode to native playback of DSD audio
The RMC-1L decodes the audio from your movie soundtracks and surround sound sources with the best sound quality possible, then sophisticated bass management directs the low-frequency components to your subwoofer. The audio is then converted into high quality analog by precision DACs, then analog resistor ladder volume controls and audiophile-grade circuitry send this to your amplifiers.
All The Formats You Could Need
The RMC-1L supports HDMI 2.0b and HDCP 2.2 via the unit’s eight HDMI video inputs and two HDMI video outputs. The RMC-1L has been designed to support the full HDMI 2.0b Gbps video date rate and full 4k UHD video at frame rates up to 4k/60, 4.4.4 chroma subsampling and 12-bit colour sampling. The RMC-1L is designed to give you the best possible options for your entertainment, supporting DolbyVision, Dolby atmos and Dolby TrueHD, dynamic HDR, DTS:X and DTS Master Audio.
Audiophile Sound Quality
Emotiva designed the RMC-1L to deliver true audiophile sound quality, no matter if you are playing stereo or multi-channel surround sound. All of the common analog and digital audio formats are supported with the RMC-1L, including PCM and DSD digital audio via both USB and HDMI.
Dirac Live
The Dirac Live automatic room correction system is one of the RMC-1L’s main features and operates across both time and frequency domains to actively bring you closer to the sound of blockbuster movies.
Modular Design
Emotiva has designed the RMC-1L with a fully modular design, which allows the user to upgrade their unit as enhancements in technology become available so that you don’t need to replace your whole unit each time there is an incremental improvement in the tech.
