The 972 platform does not include a phono pre amp. Therefore our version which employs their topology will not include one either. It does raise some interesting opportunities for our considering an add-on phono pre amp box. However, we have to gauge the interest in such a device.

I wonder how many 990 owners have ended up using vinyl because of their 990's phono input? Certainly having the groundwork in place from the 2150's phono input (an MM/MC pre-amp section), an Outlaw phono pre-amp is an intriguing possibility...

Does the 997 have a phono input at all or does it need the pre-amp to function?

Based on what Peter said, it has no phono input - in which case you would need an outboard phono pre-amp.

Oh well, I'll still buy it because I have plenty of other stuff to plug my T-table into. Is the $200 discount for 990 owners for only a limited time. I think I saw somehting that said it was good for the first 6 months the 997 is offered.

The deal is for both 990 and 970 owners and is for the first six months that the 997 is shipping.

If we assume that a "977" (or whatever name it might get) is hiding in the pipeline behind the 997, 990 and 970 owners who pass on the 997 would have the same $200 discount available for the first six months that unit is shipping. The catch there is that we don't know when such a unit might appear...

I wonder if the HDMI inputs are individually adjustable with the Reon chip as opposed to the global settings of the Integra DTC-9.8 ??
