I think a wise move for Outlaw would be speakers. The design and development cost should be relatively low. By comparison, they are simple devices, so hiss and QC problems would be minimal, something I think Outlaw would love right now. With Outlaw's "ties" to Atlantic Technology, I would imagine it wouldn't be too tough to come up with a great priced and sounding system. Speakers potentially have a huge markup, so I would think that Outlaw could offer some awesome speakers with a price tag WAY below what you would expect to pay from a showroom. I'm not positive about this, but I thought I heard somewhere that Atlantic had Joe D'appolito do some design work for them, which is probably a brilliant idea, as he's one of the better designers out there. I think Outlaw would be wise to follow that lead.

Unfortunately, I don't think that the Model 200 will be speakers. I would guess that speakers would be Model 210, 215, 220, etc. to make a complete package.

Outlaw 200 ... How about a NASCAR electric race set? I can hear the Saturday morning commercial now "Pull the bright green trigger and watch the 755 pass the 750...but wait, the huge 770 has pushed them off the track. And this Saturday on Fox, watch the real Outlaw 200 race where a UPS truck will be the pace vehicle..."

Now for my joke responce;

The 200 will be VAPORWARE!

My guess is that it's a new product line as tempting as it is to assume 2(channel)00. If it were a digital amp even I would think that they would have given it a higher number in the hierarchy.

I think I am going to go with a table top radio/CD player (e.g. Model 88 by Henry Kloss).

Or.... its a mind meld device that will replace remotes but allowing the user to just think the volume up or adjust trim levels. Never would you need to program a macro again.

Here's a wild shot at it: The model 200 is the upgraded version of the 1050. The "200" represents the second generation (the model number might change before production and promo). It will have PLII, DTS-ES, DD-EX, Neo6, and probably a proprietary surround mode. The power will be increased from 65 watts per, to approx 85-100 watts per. Connections like component ins and outs will be added. And it will have a learning remote to boot. All this for a mere $685. Could it be, could it be?

It is "definitely" an amplifier that caters strictly to the bass portion of us audiophiles. So, my guess is that the new product will be a bass amplifier (single channel / monoblock format).

I beleive that the Model 200 is going to be a 200 watt mono-block amplifier.

The model 200 is a universal (DVD & SACD) player. Sure hope so...

The model 200 is a two gun holster with two bullets (Andy would only let me have one bullet!)
