Upgrade EAD processor or but newer...


I have an older EAD Theatermaster Signature pre/pro (AC-3, 5.1 only). I have the upgrade bug to do something with the processor in the (dedicated) HT system. What would be the best way to go here: upgrade the EAD (via Boelen mods) or purchase a newer used pre/pro here on Agon. Budget is about $2k. BTW, I really don't have the room for anything more than 5.1 right now. Thanks.

I made that same decision as I have the newer EAD Theatermaster Signature (Rowland like faceplate) with AC3 and DTS. I sent my unit to Boelen and was quickly serviced and updated, now i have the cool black with blue lettering display and my unit sounds/functions much better. Maybe later I'll upgrade but after working with the Tact 2.2x in my audio system... I won't uprade until I can do audio correction on my video system!!

Spend your money upgrading to a Projector or a better display or a Velodyne DD15 sub..... those make a bigger difference since the soundtracks really aren't that good.
Yeah I bought a Lumagen DVI switcher with Scaler and WOW it cleaned up my digital cable in a huge way plus now I can run all 4 HDTV inputs that I need (DVI-DVD player, DVI- Media Center PC, Component HDTV Cox Cable, Component HDTV Xbox Kit) Best $1500 I spent on my video but I already had the Projector!
