Skyblazer may be right that no other pre-pro has multiple 7.1 ins, but I agree that it would be a
great thing to have.
It's probably too much to hope far, but I'd love to see Outlaw come up with a companion unit for the 990 with Multiple 7.1's HDMI 1.3 conversion and DACs to handle the new HD sound formats.
Something like what Sony did Briefly with the companion unit for there old 9999ES after SACDs and DVD-As first came out. [b]The 990 is such a great unit, it would by nice to be able to augment it rather than replacing it.

agreed... I think audio and video formats that currently use 7.1 inputs on pre's really should get together and use 1 cable such as HDMI for audio. This having to only being able to hook up one component using the 7.1 analog inputs.. really bites. Do electronics companies actually they they are being user friendly by doing this?
Some day.. maybe some day... all components will use something that will become the industry standard for all electronics to be able to work with each other. I really can't wait for that day to happen.
