Right, and that's why I'm most curious about the 998. The 997 was 7.1 even though it had Dolby PLIIz, which supports 9.1. I am curious if Outlaw will provide 9.1 or 11.1. It's probably more than most people will use, but we're starting to see it more and more. I guess I'm looking for outlaw to toss me a bone. wink
