I'll have to add my vote to the NO column to any DSP's. Just add ProLogic II. My current receiver (just ordered my 1050... FINALLY!) has a bunch of DSP modes and other than checking them out I hardly ever use them and wouldn't miss them at all.

I think that additional sound fields (including ProLogic II) should be included. Some people don't care for them, but others do. It all depends on personal listening preference. So it's better to have them and let the user/listener decide.

Not really interested in extraneous DSP modes.

This is a YES vote.
I was all ready to say no, but then I realized that anybody buying this preamp will be smart enough to know how to easily avoid them (and there's no danger of my wife messing around with the settings on this bad boy :-)
For the record, I never use the DSPs on my current preamp because they all sound too "artificial", but I'd still like to believe that there's a worthwhile DSP lurking out there just waiting to be discovered and I'd hate to miss an opportunity to find one on this preamp.

I vote "thumbs up."
I am a fan of DPS's - but only GOOD ones. Of course, this is subjective. I have owned a couple of "good" DSP receivers - Yamahas. Many say that Yamaha is second only to Lexicon in its implemetations of DSP's.
But even with Yamaha, I only used a handful - not the 40 that were available. I'd shoot for: DPL2 (of course), 5 channel stereo, 3 channel stereo, a subtle mode, a jazz mode. The rest get hokey fast.

While I'm not a fan of DSP's. I would like to see some sort of 5 or 6 channel stereo mode. I guess I just got used to it from my Denon 3300. If this counts as a DSP then my vote is yay.

I vote no. Personally, I am not a big fan of multiple DSP's. However, since cost is not an issue, you may want to consider installing it anyway, but have it lay dormant until a code or signal is inputed to activate it. This way you can offer it as an option/upgrade for those who want it. Kind of similar to what Tag McLaren does with its AV32R pre/pro.
