Default Mht300

7.2 channel AVR. Definitely a subtle departure from traditional Mac cosmetics.

I don't know much about HT products, but I dig the look as I assume customers would generally want a product that blends into the darkness vs lights/meters. I saw people complaining about various features on their Facebook post, but they're also the people who don't own any Mc gear. This AVR seems like a nice fit and not meant to compete with something like an MX180 with external amps.

Clean and minimalist look but I”m on the fence with the overall design. Any takers? For an all-in-one solution, seems Mac should have included the height channels amplification (e.g. Anthem MRX1140) so now one has to buy additional amp(s) for the full Atmos experience.
