Anthem AVM50V vs: Statement D2v

I'm can't seem to find in my search, anyone who has actually compared the two. The specs are very close, in fact my aging ears could probably not hear the difference, the50v weighs slightly more than the D2v although it's slightly smaller in the depth. I'm wondering if the differences are just in the quality of the components used? I think they use the same DACs, but I'm wondering what else there might be for the price difference.
Thanks for your any responses.

When I bougt my D2v I was told that the Statement was a higher quality product in components and build. I was also told that ARC was a higher level of flexability and adjustment. I downloaded noth manuals and compared, but it has been a about 10 months so I forget the diferences. You may want to do that and see what is gained by going with the Statement over the Anthem. You may want to call Anthem and ask they have been very helpful when ever I call.(905) 362-0958
I think you'll get a better answer there than from a dealer.

I saw that too. I can't figure other than someone weighed them on different scales.

My understanding that in May of this year Anthem will be offering a 1.4 upgrade on al D2v's. I just haven't investigated enough as to if it will be a send in or a in field. And a cost hadn't been established at the time I spoke with them.
