Don't want a phsycially huge complex multi-zone pre/pro. Don't need video at all (HDMI switching is OK for convenience). I want an audiophile quality audio section with 100% defeatable processing if I don't like what it does to my analog inputs. I want a couple each of USB, SPDIF, HDMI, Firewire, ETH) with audiophile DSD/PCM processing, bass mgmt, and room correction. Yeah, when the P7 first came out I thought it a joke. Now, with my Oppo BDP-83SE doing many of the above functions and no one building the MCH preamp above, I'm beginning to think this is the right product for me. No suffering while I wait for the audiophile analog and digital worlds to collide into an easy to use quality MCH preamp designed for listening to music rather than inviting the neighbors over to watch a movie.

I've seen it in a couple of other high-end brands. I wonder how different surround sound would be, given that the processing will be done in the DVD player. But if 2-channel is more important than surround, this is a great option! Thanks for the post Rick. - CJ Guest Tue, 24 Feb 2009 09:33:22 +0100
