Spoonman I put you in the subject because I think you can help me most b/c we have similar gear. I see you at the Deftech Messageboard and so I know we must have the same equipment. Anyway, I am thinking about purchasing the 950/770 combo but would 1st like to ask you 2 questions..

1) Do you think the 950 is outdated? I mean, it seems it might lose all value once the 970 is released. How does the 950 compare with the Rotel Rsp-1068? Is the 1068 more up to date with its features? WHich do you prefer?

2) My second question has to do with speakers. I just purchased 2 Definitive Technology BP2004tl speaker. How should I wire them? I mean, I think deftech allows for spades/bannaplugs/interconnects/bi-wiring? Anyway, if you had these speakers what kind of wire would you use? Where would you purchase the wire? And what kind of wiring do you prefer spades/banana etc?

Thanks man, I appreciate the time - Hobo
