RV-6 Everything you need – Done right

The Lexicon RV-6 was designed to ensure that the most important components of a premium AV system were executed with maximum effectiveness.

Superfluous connections and features were eliminated and resources focused to maintain best in class audio and video signal integrity and processing, as well as uncompromised amplification on all channels, all of the time; even with the most demanding program material.

The video and audio stages are designed for current and upcoming technologies. HDMI2.0a with HDCP2.2 4K “Ultra HD” and 3D video capability are built in as well as Dolby Vision compatibility.

An audiophile grade 24Bit /192kHz DAC, Dirac room equalisation, exceptional dynamics and low distortion ensure pristine sound for music and movies.

The Harman proprietary Logic 7 Immersion™ up mixer allows content to envelop the listener with a rich and natural three dimensional sound.

Flexible configuration, Spotify Connect, and a zone 2 with audio, 4K video, IR control, triggers and power option, make the RV6 and RV-9 an excellent choice for a broad range of applications.

Audiophile Quality

The Lexicon RV-6  leverage the 24bit /192k Cirrus CS42528 for A/D and D/A conversion which boasts 114dB dynamic range and -100 THD+N in and out.

The analog circuitry on the input and output stages, are optimized for unequalled dynamic range, ultra-low distortion, and unmatched audio clarity.

Flexibility

With 7.1.4 decoding, 11.2 preamp outputs, and 7 channels of amplification, independent zone 2 video and triggers, as well as RS232, Ethernet, and IR control, the RV-6 can be easily configured for a variety of systems.

The Lexicon Control app enables complete control of the RV-6 with an Android or iOS device.

The RV-6 is also fully compatible with Arcam’s MusicLife app, which allows streaming music from your Mac, PC or NAS drive to be controlled by an iOS device.

Logic7 Immersion

Lexicon has a rich history in professional digital audio processing, and Lexicon products are found in the vast majority of world class recording studios.

This Grammy winning pedigree is evident in the RV-6 with the proprietary Logic7 Immersion™ up mixer- which takes full advantage of height speakers with astonishing natural three dimensional sound.

Designed by Lexicon research scientists and engineers, Logic 7 Immersion provides a musical listening experience that will make you feel like you are in the concert hall, the studio with the musicians, or in the scene with the characters.

This is subtlety achieved without the sense of psycho-acoustic processing or effects.

Luxurious Industrial Design

Lexicon’s iconic industrial design exudes luxury.

A half-inch thick hairline brushed anodised aluminum fascia with bead blasted accents and Lexicon’s signature vertical grooves present a bold and distinguished statement.

A sturdy 2” aluminum knob performs volume control and data entry with a smooth and steady feel while the geometric button array, keeps the lines clean and functionality simple.

Front panel menu options are served up on a 32-character dot matrix display in classic Lexicon blue.

The iconic Lexicon logo is milled deeply into the aluminum and instills a sense of solidity.
