#63111 - 12/14/06 05:36 PM Need Advice??? (1070 vs 970 or 990)
Volks Deputy Gunslinger Registered: 12/14/06 Posts: 1 Loc: Brooklyn, NY	I want to replace my aging Parasound AVC-1800, but I'm on a tight budget. Has anymore used or considered using the 1070 as a pre/pro as opposed to either the 970 or maybe 990? Is this a viable option sonically and functionally? Reason for considering: 970 - has a few bugs that aren't yet fixed. 990 - price for the most part. Current System : Denon DVD-1920 Parasound AVC-1800 Krell KAV-500 Von Schweikert VR2000 (front) Von Schweikert LCR-20 (center) PSB Image B25 (rear) SVS 20-39cs (passive sub) Parasound HCA-2003 (sub amp) Hitachi 51S700

Since you've already got the Krell amp, I would remove the 1070 from consideration. _________________________ gonk HT Basics \| HDMI FAQ \| Pics \| Remote Files \| Art Show Reviews: Index \| 990 \| speakers \| BDP-93

Overkast Deputy Gunslinger Registered: 01/26/06 Posts: 7 Loc: New York	gonk, Strange coincidence, but Volks has a very similat system to me !!! WOW!!! That's scarey!! Are you implying that the 1070 has the same issues as the 970 also? If so, then I would suggest Volks be a little patient and save for the 990. _________________________ "When I Can't Face The Face I Fancy. I Fancy The Face I Face."

gonk Desperado Registered: 03/21/01 Posts: 14054 Loc: Memphis, TN USA	We have seen very few (almost no) comments about the 1070 having the same no audio bug as the 970, but the two are the very same platform and so should have the same issues. _________________________ gonk HT Basics \| HDMI FAQ \| Pics \| Remote Files \| Art Show Reviews: Index \| 990 \| speakers \| BDP-93
