I've never heard of Odyssey, looks like quality stuff! I use a Aragon stereo amp that's made in Indianapolis too.

With my Marantz, I just connect my receiver directly to the internet via a single ethernet cable. No need to involve a PC. Isn't the Anthem able to download the new firmware directly from the internet? You should not need to be connected to a computer.
Try plugging the red banana plug into the black terminal to see if it fits. I cant imagine that it wont. Both terminals should be the same, and both holes should fit a regular banana plug. I never heard of any other kind of connection.
You should be able to just buy some banana plugs and...
