HOW TO READ THE DIFFERENCE
Architecture matters more than badge hierarchy.
Core 16 makes sense when the cinema fits comfortably inside its channel count. Elite MK3 earns its place when the system needs more outputs, modular I/O, active-speaker integration or future expansion.
The right answer depends on the speaker count, subwoofer strategy, room-correction workflow, amplifier interface, video requirements and how much expansion the cinema may need later.
