An excellent point, but going back to my earlier post -- are repairs actually any more common for 950 owners than owners of other comparable pre/pros? Sure, we hear about them here on the forum, and it's always a bummer when a piece of gear is sidelined, but how many users never post here because their 950's never break? We certainly don't see a post from every 950 owner to have to make use of the 950's warranty, but we probably see a fair percentage. On the other hand, the number of 950 owners who put in an appearance here is likely only a tiny, tiny sampling of all 950 owners. If the 950 were actually the home theater equivalent of an old Jaguar (buy two because one will always be in the shop), you'd see a much different trend in this forum. Hence pleary's (and my) assertion that he doesn't see a solid case for the 950 being unreliable.
