I think the jury is out until there is an actual shipping product that we can eyeball. There are a bunch of processors now available in the $1-2k range that offer pre-out, Audyssey MultEQ XT32 room correction and a host of other features. Outlaw will have to compete with that. They'll have to offer better sound, better features, better price, or some combination of those. If they've still got the designers of the 990 on hand and can utilize merchant silicon to get the features and performance required, perhaps they can pull it off.

We'll see.
