@soix My reference at that time for this discussion was about the Home Theater processor room calibration , not AVR. The likes of  Anthem , Lyngdorf , McIntosh , Audiocontrol , Trinnov I think , it is like a religion or ´´ Art  ´´ .   Very sub... 
Amps For My Surround Sound Speakers
Schiit Vidar should be considered  The surround speakers are not intensely used in my opinion .  
Lumin P1 or X1 or others?
LuminX1 has no digital input. Except for a USB input for a NAS or USB stick only LuminX1 has digital audio OUT LuminP1 has digital inputs .

@dsk3 Have you talked to an Acurus dealer or with Indy Audio Labs ? I hope , you had the same rebate than the add on US Audio mart. With Lyngdorf , you will own a highly regarded brand. They will still be there in 10 years . let us know about...

@dsk3 @auxinput is wright ( as usual ) If you are looking mostly for the new features ,you may buy a Yamaha RX- A8A receiver . But I think , the ´´old ´´ McIntosh MX 160 will still sound  a lot better. By the way , the cost of hardware upgra...

If you want 2.1 HDMI  , DTS X Pro , and your are mostly  ´´digital ´´  Lyngdorf is the way to go instead of McIntosh. McIntosh is always , a litlle late in the game. Maybe McIntosh MX 180  will have these  features.

McIntosh gears keep their values over time
