Roberto --

I've had my 1070 for about 14 months now -- I also run it through an Aperion Audio 5.1 set up. I also have a seperate rig for music (McIntosh MC 2505 and C26 with Vandersteen 2Ce's, Thorens TT -- also a pair of AR3a's depending on what I am listening to). So I use the 1070 and Aperion setup primarily for movies, TV, and video games -- all using optical connections.

For the price, it is an outstanding combination (well under $2500 for both the 1070 and the Aperions). I have been really happy with the performance and sound quality. And even now it blows me away that the set up cost so little for what you get. You could spend more, but as I am sure you know, you really start to see diminishing returns. I think that the 1070 not only hits, but far exceeds the "sweet spot" in terms of value and bang for the buck.
