scjim:
firstly, please understand that i mean no slight to you or your decision to purchase any product. i am only trying to impose on your kindness while you have both units in your home.

i am curious as to the all-in-one amps. if you could switch them, i would like to know how it affects the difference in sound of the prepros.

also, does the anthem have a 6 channel bypass option, with analog x-over, like the 950, or does it have to be converted to digital to be 'bass managed'?

i too, have picked up 4 s312 jbl cabs, as i donated my custom built dynaudios to a relative and am building a new set. i like them. a bit harsh in the hi-mid to low tweeter range, but otherwise, very accurate for the money.

also, if there is any way for you to compare sacd multichannel between the 2, i would like to hear your thoughts.

i appreciate your patience with 'all'.
