wow that does look a lot alike.

Twins?! Woah. Same interior construction, same rear panel, almost identical front panel (same button layout), same Cirrus processing (triple crossover, extra surround), and they're both made in Malaysia (same factory?). I'll be curious to hear the story behind this.

The big question is is the AT pre/pro available now and what is the cost? Those two pre/pros look too similar IMHO.

OK, I just had a thought that might help explain the P2000. Currently, the only products Atlantic Technology sells are speakers. This older thread asked what speakers the Outlaws use for equipment testing -- the answer was Atlantic Technology System 270 and 370 because of their reputation for neutral sound. So the first non-speaker product Atlantic Technology offers is a re-branded pre/pro designed by a company that uses their speakers for equipment testing. That actually makes some sense. It may also be a way to get the 950 (in a somewhat different form) in regular retail channels for the non-Internet buyers. I'll be curious to see why they chose to begin selling such a product. I'll also be curious to see what the price is for a P2000 (assuming that it will be sold through regular channels like Atlantic's other products).

Ahh... good detective work, Gonk. I'm also curious to see what the price differential will be.

i just sent an email to AT questioning about the website (www.gspr.com), the availability and the price of the product. hopefully i'll get the answers soon. l.
ps: i kinda like the faceplate and the buttons on the AT better. they look a little less cheesy

I agree.

The whole aesthetic of the Altantic model is much better than the outlaw's

Hi,
I've come across this website and found out about your AV pre/pro.
However, when I checked your website, I could not find any information
about the product. I have several questions:
1. Does this website have your authorization to post information about
your products?
2. How reliable is the website? The URL is:
http://www.gspr.com/atlanticphotos.html
3. If this is actually one of your product, is it available anywhere and
what is the cost?
Thank you much.
l.k.

Hi,
This product is not yet available. It should be in a few months.
And, yes, the website you went to is authorized to post of products. There is no retail yet.

Thanks,

If it is the same product, I'd pay a few bucks extra for the better looks!
