Suggestions on a home theater processor?

What's the story on the Outlaw 997 and UMC-1? I'm not familiar with those.

Other than the Audyssey MultiEQ feature, do you think that the internal electronic components of better quality and design in the Rotel RSP-1570 compared to the Onkyo/Integra and Outlaw 997 units, or vice versa?

From what their homepage says, I believe that Emotiva just started shipping UMC-1 orders last week, but I might be wrong.

Still trying to decide on a processor. Which of the Integra pieces is better for the audio in a home theater (as I don't need video processing), the DHC-9.9 OR DHC-80.1, any difference? And would you go for an Integra or Emotiva UMC-1 or wait longer for the Outlaw 997? I'm looking for the best audio resolution/detail and spatial envelopment. Thanks again

Cool, how do you like the audio detail, clarity, etc of the 40.1 so far?

I decided to order the Arcam AV888. I'll let you know how I feel it performs once it's calibrated and fired-up in my theater room.

I love the sound from the Arcam AV888, so no regrets buying the unit.
