Not knowing all the details of the ICBM 2 it looks like a perfect setup would be to pair this with the Parasound P7. It's a totally analog 7 channel processor and has limited bass management capabilities. If you have 7.1 analog outs on your source then you could have a very nice sounding and totally unique 7 channel home theater setup. Seems like a more pure approach to home theater audio than the norm. I don't think you can set channel levels with this unit either but a possibility would be to use the ICBM 2 for that as well if at all possible. Again, I don't know all the capabilities of this thing. Any thoughts?

It does seem like a reasonable match. If you have good analog sources and don't need room correction or matrix surround processing, the P7 could serve you well, and the ICBM-2 would be an ideal way to expand the P7's abilities with bass management. Channel levels would need to be set in your sources, though.

I have an Oppo BDP-95 and a Parasound P7. The P7 does a good Bass-Management for stereo sources. And the BDP-95 does a correct but limited Bass-Management for the multichannel sources, so I WANT AN ICBM-2 !
