Thanks for the suggestions guys - hadn't noticed either of these. I'm also looking at the 10" x-sub from av123. Anyone heard it? 
Notebook digital vs analog out to digital amp?
thanks Markphd - that makes sense. In this case it's a question of whether output from the panny digital amp/reciever beats out comparable traditional gear at the same price pointAlso it seems like the Echo Indigo (also PMCIA) would be a significa...
