Well my 950 is on the ropes so I decided to take advantage of the lower price of the 990 along with the $200 buck discount when the new pre/pro is released. I also ordered an arm full of XLR cables. Can't wait tell it gets here. I never realized how bad the TV speaker was. I think I am going to add a suggestion for the Outlaws to include a discounted single cable purchase when ordering in quantity to support the .1 in a 5.1 or 7.1 purchase of cables.
