Yeah, forget about all the bells and whistles. I just want to make sure the 950 is comparable sound-wise. I'm not too worried if it is going to be eventually upgraded...every processor is always upgraded. That's why I don't want to spend thousands on one. However, a computer uplink is nice so software upgrades can be done by the end user once the patch is posted, etc.

That could very well be, but I've found no reason to enable Digital Re-Mastering on the P-965.

The only way you will know for sure if one is better than the other is to compare them yourself. I have and the P-965 stays in my rack as a result.

this argument is stupid! sherwood's older pre/pro and the 950 were the same unit (except for cost), so one could assume similar sound quality from their new pre/pro. having said that, the features then would give the edge to the sherwood. and having said that, sherwood is junk. lol.

You do mean the Sherbourne is the same as the 950, I assume. You seem to have fallen into the same trap as others that don't know the products they speak of.

no, the new 965 is different, i was pointing out that you should be able to expect the same sound quality from it as you can the 950 and the older sherwood.

I’ll say one good thing about the 950..it retains value! After deciding to keep the Sherwood Newcastle P-965 (for obvious reasons), I sold the 950 within 18 hours of listing it for sale.

Yes, the 950's are highly regarded, doesn't surprise me that it sold quickly.

Cliff is correct: I think you're still confusing Sherwood and Sherbourn.

Sherwood makes the P-965 being discussed here. Sherbourn has a pre-pro that is, as you put it, "the same unit (except for cost)" as the Outlaw 950.

Best,
Sanjay

Sanjay,

It seems that some people in this and other threads don’t know there are two Sherwood product lines. There is the entry level Sherwood America and the higher level Sherwood Newcastle lines. Compared to the 950 the Sherwood America line is crap, however the Sherwood Newcastle line is a step up.
