Anyone have some decent photos of the back panels for the XMC-2 and RMC-1L ? Ime actually waiting for someone to use the correct name for the RMC2 as its not the RMC-1L .. If you watch Dans interview around the 2/44sec point you will see while 1L is on the placeholder card RMC2 is on the backplate  This could take on a life of its own if left unchecked  Thanks for pointing me to the video! Here's the RMC-2/1L (you gotta be able to read backwards). It's all there.  |

View Attachmentat the axpona conference, dan said to me that it was his staff that talked him into naming it the RMC-1L. major reason was that it is not an update over a previous model (RMC-1), but it is a reduction in size and flexibility over the RMC-1. so it is no surprise that he slips every now and then and calls it an RMC-2. tchaik.......... |

Makes sense .I just hope theres no delay due to all the chassis having RMC-2 [as pictured] changed to 1L because that's more logical Theres some precedence here when XMC1 gen 3 was changed to XMC-2 which also made sense . |

They can just use black electrical tape and some white-out to change the lettering. Or, they can sell the RMC-2/RMC-1L as a limited number collectors' edition. Kinda like the 1955 Double Die penny, which only us really old guys would know without having to look it up. |

Will the XMC-1 to XMC-2 trade-in program be available to folks who bought the XMC-1 used?

Chad I think I recall the trade in being offered to those XMC-1’s with V2 boards. Doesn’t matter if you bought new or used. That’s my best recollection! |

Chad I think I recall the trade in being offered to those XMC-1’s with V2 boards. Doesn’t matter if you bought new or used. That’s my best recollection! Nope, trade in offered to all, just different prices if you do or don't have the upgrade HDMI upgrade board. XMC-2 announcement: The existing upgrade Atmos board to the XMC-1 that was previously announced isn't happening. Having two separate OS paths with the different chips were going to be far too expensive and time consuming for the engineering team. Instead, we will offer an upgrade path to a brand new XMC-2 unit with a trade in program. For any person who owns an XMC-1 with the V3 board, you can upgrade to a brand new XMC-2 for $650. If you have an XMC-1 without the V3 board, it will be $1,050 to upgrade. Basically getting a brand new unit for the price of what the Atmos board upgrade was going to be. We will have an official announcement hitting the site soon but wanted to give you the heads up first. |

Kinda like the 1955 Double Die penny, which only us really old guys would know without having to look it up. Limited edition with a brushed aluminium faceplate I could easily get behind  Too much boring black these days .. |

No worries on a delay. We made the change to the name far enough in advance before the chassis were in production. That one shown is a test mule we had made up a while back.

They gave away a LOT of stuff, it was my first Emotiva event and I was very impressed. In my case the discount and winning that credit caused me to buy so it worked |
