Does anyone actually make a processor that works
See the discussion 'Need advice on pre/pro - Rotel1098/Outlaw990/??' about halfway down the list of Home Theater discussions. I provided links to several reviews for the Integra 9.8/Onkyo PR-SC885 pre/pro (same unit). I just ordered it this weeken... 
High power handling speakers
How about an older pair of b&w 801s? Always cool looking! 
Help with creating 12V trigger
If you wan to go the RF route, search RF Outlet Switch on Google. You will find a number of devices ranging from simple to complex. here is one that will probably do the trick.http://www.notestation.com/rs-211.htm Good luck. 
Outlaw 990, Anthem AVM 20, or ??
Hey guys, thanks for the feedback. My journey has lead me to the Onkyo pr-sc885. It is the same unit as the Integra 9.8. Bottom line, it has received RAVE reviews from all, and has all of the latest goodies...codecs, hdmi 1.3, audio quality, video... 
Rotel RMB-985 or new Amp?
Agreed! I'm waiting on the Onkyo 885 to arrive. After I get that and familiarize myself with it then I will consider one of these amps. You're absolutely right, there isn't munch to lose. I know the Outlaw gets some excellent reviews and the emotv... 
Rotel RMB-985 or new Amp?
Thanks guys. I think you both are right... nothing wrong with the 985 but just was wondering about the next step in amps (without breaking the bank). Knownothing, interesting that you mention the Outlaw. I don't have any of their products but I've... 
Recommendation for a New HT AVR?
Sorry, I meant to say that the 885 can be had for $799! 
Recommendation for a New HT AVR?
Check out the thread "Need advice on pre/pro - Rotel1098/Outlaw990/??." I posted some links for the Onkyo Pro 885. It is the identical pre/pro as the Ingetra 9.8, which someone mentioned in a reply to your post. The unit has received flowing revie... 
Need advice on pre/pro - Rotel1098/Outlaw990/???
Tim, Yeah, I tend to completely over analyze! At the end of the day, I need to replace a ailing Sony ES that's about 10 years old. I could probably get a brick and be sufficiently pleased, but I like the hunt. ;-) My speakers are Nautilus 805s and... 
Anthem AVM 20 V.2, Outlaw 990, or ???
Thanks again UV. I've started digging into the Integra 9.8 (and its Onkyo Pro counterpart 885) too. Its gets very favorable reviews. My guess is that the Anthem does some things better, but given the HDMI switching and current formats that the 9.8... 
Need advice on pre/pro - Rotel1098/Outlaw990/???
Tim,I feel like I'm pirating your thread...i've been checking out some reviews on the 9.8/885 (thanks bob_reynolds). Every review I have seen is glowing! As I mentioned before, I really like the fact that the unit is current in both architecture a... 
Need advice on pre/pro - Rotel1098/Outlaw990/???
Hey Tim, if you're interested in the Integras, check out the Onkyo PR-SC885P. Apparently it's part of Onkyo's Pro Line and is identical to the Integra 9.8, sans the three year warranty. Ths unit is a few features light of the 9.9, but supports all... 
Need advice on pre/pro - Rotel1098/Outlaw990/???
Tim, Have you considered the Anthem AVM-20/30? I'm in almost the exact same position. I posted a very similar thread and believe that it falls in the same category/price range as your other selections and seems to get very favorable feedback. If y... 
Anthem AVM 20 V.2, Outlaw 990, or ???
Ultraviolet, thanks for the feedback. I'm leaning in this direction. Does anyone know the practical difference between the AVM 20 and 30. The 30 replaced the 20, right? Both seem to go for around the same price used, but I see lots of discussion a... 
Anthem AVM 20 V.2, Outlaw 990, or ???
Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the duplicate post. Not sure how to remove it or I would.
