A big Thumbs Down to DSP's.
I don't use anything but stereo or regular surround.
A re-EQ feature might not be such a bad idea though.

Definite no to DSP.
I currently own a processor that is unbelievable complex (Sony 9000es) and although it has quite useful modes, I would rather not bother with the idiotic music modes.
Let me explain; I've owned a lot of equipment with useless, complex modes.
I used to own a simple Technics SH-AC500D decoder that had excellent performance for its price. No modes at all (not even RE-EQ!) and it was a breathe of fresh air (I could memorise the operating procedures).
My current Sony 9000es needs it's DSP modes to 'Virtualise' the 6.1 necessary for new materiel - it is a 5.1 system with extremely powerful DSP's (three SHARC devices).
I believe a system that is as relatively complex as the Outlaw 950 should have 'one' good music DSP mode (the Outlaw 6.1 Surround) plus DPL2.
And no movie DSP modes except to boost the virtual/phantom modes for people who do not have a 6.1 system, esp. rear center.

A big NO on the extra DSP's.
Although, 5-7 channel stereo would be a good addition (The only DSP I ever use, and only when I want to just fill the room with sound for low level listening).

I vote no for dsp's except:
A six-axis or logic 7 type dsp. I will not buy a preamp that does not have this. I listen to six-axis for all formats and even prefer it to DTS or AC3 for some material especially music dvd's. I have not heard PL 2 so I can't comment on it.
Please Please Please include logic 7 or six-axis type surround. Thanks

I vote yea. I have many DSP's on my Yamaha, and while I don't like most of them I do like a few.

I vote NO to DSP modes because I never use them.

DSP modes are best left for Joe Blows that think Best Buy and Circuit City have the best gear! Not to mention, DSP's add unfaithful colorization.
