Marantz AV 10 15.4CH AV Processor Bench Test Results!

[TheAVInsider]

I thought Dirac ART wasn't even on the AV10 yet?

It's not. Only Storm has it currently. That's about to change. It'll be interesting to discover if there's a new Dirac specific SOC installed inside any new ART capable units that come out.
Wait till you see the launch prices. And what happens to the RRP on the AV10.
Nice bundle discount, so I guess their trying to push on the amp.

Yes, it sounds like they are trying to link the AV20 launch to Dirac-ART's release - which means it cannot be far away! - and that bodes well for owners of the X800 series as well... (and potentially other brands with DLBC support)

The HTP-1 had Dirac ART already in beta testing last year so it's possible Monoprice/Monolith will be able to roll it out as well.
