Congrats,I ordered a 990/7125 a few days ago and its on delivery for today.Having owned a 1068(technically still do)and a 1056 I currenty have in another room I always got a laugh out of it when someone would post"why buy the 1068 when you can get a 1056 w/free amps cheaper".The sound of these two was noticably different to me.On music the 1068 does a very good job,I have no adjectives other than it made music very listenable.The 1056 while head and shoulders above other $1k avrs for music,was not in the same leauge musically.I've had a pile of avr's and a few good prepros,every one was different w/music,for HT they were all good.

When I decided to set up my 2nd full blown HT I looked at everything I could but Outlaw got the nod based on their great price/service/warranty/following and reviews.The worst that could happen is I send it back but I've got great faith in the Outlaws.Hope it works out to your expectations,and mine.
