I just purchased an AVP on Audiogon in fantastic condition. I'm using it mainly for 2-channel but I'm running video through it as well. I have it paired with a Proceed Amp2. When using the analog inputs with MIT MI-330 interconnects and a Marantz CD17 mkII CD player,
the sound was open but lacked focus. There was a noticeable improvement once I connected the Marantz via optical cable to the AVP's DAC. For the prices they're available for these days, I'd roll the dice and grab one. If it breaks, move on to something else....that's the only risk here. It's extremely hard to beat for $450.00.
