These are the two processors that I'm seriously looking at. Is there any reason I'd get the Rotel over the 950? (Other than cosmetics? Damn the Outlaw is ugly!)

And what would your suggestions be for amping? I've got my eye on the Outlaw 7 channels and the Anthem PVA 7. What makes one amp better than another? (sorry...newbie to separates here)

Thanks!
