Does anyone know just how good the 950 FM tuner is? Will it suck in distant stations and still present local ones cleanly? Any chance it'll be as good as my old NAD?

We're not likely to hear anything from the only folks who know the answer to that one -- beta testers and the Outlaws themselves. Hopefully once the testing is complete and they start shipping units, one or more of the beta testers will post some sort of review with some of that information.
