I thought maybe I should add a little clarification. The claim of more "select" hardware on the inside was made by my local dealer. The basis for his observations was from looking at the insides of the unit(AT) at the latest trade show. He said that with his knowledge gained from having been repairing components for a long time that he could tell that AT's internal hardware was top-notch. He said that his decisions to carry the line were based on the high quality nature of its assembly.

AT's advice to dealers regarding concerns between their product and the lowered price Outlaws (which he allowed me to read) were pretty vague. I think they basically concluded by saying they were confident that people would be able to hear a difference.
