I planning to buy a new AV Preamp/Processor very soon. I have been waiting for the new Outlaw 997. In the meanwhile I am looking at the new Marantz AV8003 Networking unit. I have been comparing features to the 997 (also using the Sherwood AV R-972). I like the AV8003 network capabilities. Right now I can buy Marantz @25% discount. It has a lot of features and is available Now! Since I am a novice and want to maximize features, which would be best to buy? How does the 997 compare to the 8003 for quality, etc? I would appreciate your input.
