The Sherwood P-965, upon which the Outlaw 990 is closely based, now comes with a room EQ feature that includes the subwoofer. As far as I know it is the only pre-pro in this price range that includes the subwoofer in the room EQ.

I had been leaning towards the Outlaw 990 over the Sherwood because of the balanced outputs and the DVI switching. I have no need for either of those features at the present, but the flexibility for the future would be nice.

However, the new room EQ feature on the Sherwood changes the equation for me. I have a passive "raw" VMPS New Larger sub that I can only control through the pre-pro, so room EQ with sub coverage is very attractive.

The Outlaws have been hinting about some "surprises" going into the holiday season. Does anyone think there is a chance that room EQ with sub coverage will be added to the 990's feature set?
