Looks pretty tall. I hope I can fit it in my rack, as I only have 7 3/4 inches.

JT, It's got feet under it, that's more than just a face plate. And the display is more than the piece of colored plastic I'd expect for a mocked up face plate; you can see the display elements in it. hmmmm ... not sure I really want to get my hopes up, but since Scott's carried this beyond the traditional April Fools day with a second photo being posted today, maybe this isn't a gag ... I wouldn't expect a custom box to be created until they had something finished to fit in it ...

funny though,just did some quick checking,every outlaw component says what it is under the model number.
it's so big,it's almost gotta be a receiver,though.

Impressive! IIRC the outlaws DID say that the new pre-pro was their OWN design with no sharing required as there was with the 950. This keeps getting better and better. I am positively awash with anticipation to see what the feature set is.
Scott, If I may ask of you, can we get a back shot of this new electronic beauty?
( Actually, I don't expect that to happen, but nothing ventured... )

Check out the early pics of the 1070 and 790, painttoad - both are using the same new design style as the 990, and both list nothing under the model number. It's definitely big, but based on the 9xx numbering it would make more sense for it to be a surround sound processor - a replacement or big brother to the 950. The height is definitely significant, though. Maybe the balanced connections that they mentioned using on the next SSP (to go with the 790's balanced inputs). makes sense,haven't seen old pics. i tried to zoom in on the surround formats on the bottom right but still couldn't make it out. scott's such a tease! i don't like it,no green power button :p
