Efficiently Proficient: The M6, a Tool for the Ultimate Control

Proficient proved themselves most worthy a long time ago and the M4 receiver was a turning point in multi-zone amplification and sonic integration inside your dwelling. Now it's time to introduce the M6, a completely redesigned tool that will put you in definitive control of your home's way with music and generally speaking - audio media.

The Proficient M6 is no toy: its tech specs make this very clear and the price furthermore underlines it: selling for a very serious $3,000, the M6 is not your everyday receiver or the kind of audio equipment you run into constantly. The price is somehow justified as we're dealing with a digital amplifier that will deliver pristine quality sound in up to 6 separate zones in your home.

The great thing is that the Proficient M6 can actually handle 6 different signal sources, thus offering a control level other similar pieces of gear are still dreaming about; most of the multi-zone receivers until now used to run with 2 sources and could control slightly more zones. This new gear lets you do almost anything with your house, even if in the living room you and your guests will enjoy Sinatra's warm voice and the kids on the patio will show your neighbors what hard rock really is and how you "dance" to it.

The Proficient M6 sports a 12-channel amplifier that can blast up to 30W; not one but two AM/FM tuners are present, each with 5 presets per zone for unbelievable versatility in any occasion. Six master keypads are supplied with the M6, each with an integrated IR remote control. Some very neat additions to the already classical party mode are the doorbell and paging functions that will turn the music down when someone calls in so no more friends screaming on your doormat while you crank up your newly-bought metal CD!
