I would like to see the DC trigger work differently. Have the trigger be adjustable instead of fixed to the whole unit. For example you would be able to select what started the trigger like the DVD or VCR input.

Good idea for a thread!

- distance setting for the sub
- crossover setting for the rears
- distance setting for the rears
- a genuine 7.1 DSP mode a la THX Ultra2 or Logic 7 or something by Outlaw or Cirrus (CES plus...)
- a better tuner, or remove it altogether
- 24/96 ADCs
- a dedicated remote, not a jack-of-all-trades universal remote
- a sub polarity toggle in the config, or, with the new Anthem software for example, you can set the phase by 5 deg increments
- different sub phase settings allowable for digital/2 channel inputs vs the 5.1 analog input

There's more, but that's a good start...

BTW, I'm thinking of these for the high end Outlaw pre/pro, not the 950 II.

The only thing I really hate about the 950 is not being able to turn the on-screen display off. It's extremely annoying when you don't want it.

Being able to adjust and save the audio outputs levels per device.

I'm pretty sure the OSD can be turned off. Doesn't setting the display time to 0sec accomplish this?

The 0 sec delay time was added on the red dot 950's; earlier units had a 3 sec delay time in place of the 0 sec.

Oh, you have to be kidding! I didn't think there was any improvement in the red dot units outside of the problem fix. I remember talking to Outlaw about the on screen display when I got it, and having them confirm you couldn't turn it off, and them suggesting I connect higher res picture sources directly to my tv (which I can't - I only have 1 S-video on my tv).
Outlaw, any chance I could trade my Outlaw 950 for a red dot unit? Or I'd even pay for an upgrade to the 0 sec OSD - I love everything else about the 950, the OSD is the only thing that irritates me every time it comes on (which is a lot)!

When I posted it, it was live. The thread must have been removed when the Outlaws did their archive sweep a few weeks ago.
