@dsk3 If Lyngdrof MP 60 2.1 is hardware and firmware upgradeable ( the later , I am sure ) the 3000$ rebate will pay you the next hardware upgrade .

For the past four  years , I have plugged and unplugged my whole system so many times ; that , today , at the moment I touch a cable ; I hyperventilate and sweat like if I was in a sauna . I don’t want to remove anything anymore .

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.

5 HDMI 2.1 Inputs Instead of 8 HDMI 2.1 is not relevant in my opinion. There are no Blueray player that are 8K . Apple TV and NVidia Shield Pro are 4K I think , only gaming gears like PS5 ( ? ) and others , are 8K. Some television are 8K , but...

McIntosh MX 170 uses the Room Perfect room calibration  too And you have a very solid brand that still , should be in business 10 years from now …….

@dsk3  If you decide on the ACT4 ,  be sure you have a good dealer who knows the products he sell.  Some dealers carry 20 brands . They do not know everything. A home theater processor is a complex gear .  No dealer is able to solve the  kind o...
