EAD TheaterMaster 8000p vs Integra Research RDC-7


I'm almost closing a deal in a Integra Research RDC-7 for around $3.000, but I got a proposal for a EAD TheaterMaster 8000p for $4.000. I'm not convinced that I should spend $1.000 more for a processor with less features than the Integra, such as component video switching, dts-es, plII, balanced outuputs for all speakers...

EAD's dealer keep telling me that the TheaterMaster sounds better in 2-ch music than the Integra and that it also has better components inside. I still not convinced, but maybe you can help me.

What do you think? Should I get the Integra or spend $1.000 more in the EAD? Did you have the chance to compare both units?

Thanks guys. I've just closed the deal on the Integra and will be sending it to the latest upgrade (THX Ultra 2, new bass management...). I hope I enjoy the Integra as much as you do.
