As a leading manufacturer of home audio equipment, Emotiva has found that many people still don’t own high-quality audio gear. Some of them don’t have the budget to buy good equipment, while others don’t take the time to try to understand how to use it, and that’s exactly why the brand developed the new Emotiva BasX products. BasX components combine excellent sound quality, a carefully chosen set of truly useful features, and solid performance, with a simple yet elegant design.
This unique combination delivers a package you won’t find anywhere else: exceptional sound and great value for money. All components in the new BasX line are designed to be within reach of all music lovers. You don’t need to be rich to own them, and you don’t need to be an engineer to know how to use them.
The BasX MC-700 is a high-performance surround processor supporting 4k UHD HDR video and all current 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound formats. The MC-700 includes six HDMI 4k video inputs, three of which support 4k UHD HDR video, with HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2, as well as several analog and digital audio inputs for your other audio sources. The MC-700 can be operated using the front panel controls, or via the supplied infrared remote control. The intuitive menu system makes operation and setup easy via the front panel’s clear blue VFD display, or your screen’s on-screen display (OSD).
The BasX MC-700 preamp is the ideal choice if you’re looking for a way to upgrade the performance of a home theater system. It also offers the perfect entry ticket to high-performance playback, while keeping the price affordable. The MC-700 delivers fast switching for HD and 4k UHD HDR video, excellent sound quality, and a wide selection of advanced features, including Emotiva’s latest generation proprietary Emo-Q system for automatic room correction. Paired with a good power amp, like the BasX A-500 or BasX A-700, a subwoofer, and speakers, the MC-700 will bring you sound quality and control you didn’t think possible at this price point.
The BasX MC-700 isn’t just great, Emotiva built it to last, with a robust steel chassis, solid aluminum front panel, and high-quality components. The brand expects you to enjoy your BasX MC-700 for many years - and backs it with a three-year warranty.
The few short weeks spent with the BasX MC-700 and A-700 pair have definitively convinced me of the appeal of Emotiva's new "budget" range. Much more than I would have initially imagined, the two models provide a genuine upgrade for home theater enthusiasts who want to separate preamplification and amplification while keeping their budget under tight control. An excellent value for the money.

Super preamp with a high-performance EQ. Delighted with the sound quality regardless of the input type.

Happy with it, the minimalist interface could integrate French.
