It is not the communities fault that Outlaw hasn't been able to bring these processors to fruition. The announcement for each processor was issued to the community with Outlaws feature set and estimate of delivery and in each case they did not communicate problems they were experiencing during development until the project was cancelled at last minute. I love my Outlaw equipment and their customer service has always been excellent. At this point though, I believe the industry is developing new features faster than a small company can keep up and I don't believe the Phoenix will ever hit the street.

Yes, It looks like they are done with processors - amps are hanging on - but a new AVP has apparently slipped from their grasp. I will wait until a few weeks past CES, and then find the best price on a '7703.

JDB001,

We are heading out to CES this week. After we return, we will provide members of the saloon with an update. For the record, we are not exiting the processor category.

Best Regards

Peter

Amen!

Thank you Peterfor the update. I am not in the market to update the 975 yet but am interested in seeing the new piece.

Have a great show.

Peter:
Thanks for the positive info - you still have me. Tell us AMAP so it will be easier to stay hooked. We know you (the Outlaws) can do it - as the real AV/HT Pros - so spill your guts, "read us in", and give us the complete info. Its been too long not to tell us the facts, all of the fact. My Visa card is ready to swipe.

Found this blurb on the web indicating that an Outlaw HD Radio is going to be demonstrated.

Will this be part of the new processor or another as yet unannounced product (Move over RR2150)? Only time will tell.

Interesting link EEman. I found the DTS information to support the idea Outlaw has delayed the new processor due to DTS and Atmos having no set standards. Outlaw is not big enough to throw darts at what has been an ever changing standard.

Based on my experience with the 975 I would expect the new unit to have an excellent tuner.

I am hoping that someone will post pictures of Outlaw's booth and then maybe we might get a sneak peak of something.

Hi Butchgo,

Outlaw does not have a booth here and there is no processor on dispay.

We are here for important vendor meetings to be briefed on new technology changes that will affect some of our new products.

In addition to the HD Radio people, we learned that a second technology company would mention us in their general press release. Someone from the press was in their private suite and took a picture of this product. It might appear in a blog tonight.

Although we have been quiet lately we have been very busy with a number of new products.

Peter
