I have no love for the old.






The new design is simple, which is fine and I'm not going to spend a lot of time looking at it. I think the only thing I'd like is a true black front instead of charcoal or the gray. Main reason is that my other components are black and the outlaw component looks like odd man out in the rack. In fact it doesn't look as strong or sturdy as a brushed metal look. Take the new design and incorporate a brushed meta look and it would look solid.

I'm waiting!!! Still!!! Bought a 7125 amp two years ago. Still in the box. Come on all ready.

Wouldn't be a bad idea to get a temp pre/pro replacement since you have the amp just sitting there. I'm on my second temp replacement since the first announcement of the 997. I bought a 7500 in anticipation with a 970 purchase shortly after. I've since sold that and am using an Onkyo nr807 (using pre-outs to 7500). At the right price on the used market you can sell it for what you pay for it.

I am quite pleased with the Outlaw mono blocks and LFM-1 EX that are part of my set up. I am looking at picking up a new processor or receiver this year. It would be nice to see a list of current features as they become finalized in this implementation. I have seen the list of features from the initial announcement but I understand things can change between then and when the product hits the market. I am interested in the HDMI 1.4a implementation and the networking capabilities offered by this spec. Has this been ruled out for the 998?

Many thanks.
