Nay,

I believe DSPs to be a thing of the past... before the DD and DTS formats become so prominent and dominant. DD EX and DTS ES are excellent competing formats that will demand all or the attention of the user.

On the other hand, Denon and several other manufacturers include 5 channel stereo, which I will use frequently for leisure TV watching and MP3 listening for chores around the house. 5 channel stereo, Logic 7, and other's ideas of filling every speaker with no added sound processing is a good thing, IMO

Jeremy...a new guy to Outlaw, but an old guy to Home Theater...I've been an on-line researcher of home theater for a little over a year, and I've been reading quite a bit about "Outlaw"...really looking forward to the release of this pre/pro, should be an exciting time for Home Theater enthusiasts

Thanks

Seeing as the 950 will be able to derive six (what about those who are running 5 or 7?) discrete channels from Dolby Digital, DTS sound-tracks, stereo and matrix sound tracks, I really don't see a need for any DSPs.

Why not? I can avoid them if I don't want to use them. And if people are worried about menu "complexity" perhaps they shouldn't be going the separates route anyway.

I'm new to this forum and don't (as of yet) own any Outlaw products. In my opinion, it's a nay also. I can't recall once in the last 15 years that I've actually used any of those DSP modes. Nix 'em and make it easier to use. Thanks for the opportunity to make your equipment 'what the user wants'.

No DSP except surround mode from stereo & mono material. But I'd like to have the ability to have some form of memory for equalization settings: eg I think that most TV material needs a louder center channel (in surround) than movies.

In my experience, I never use dsp's. The computer programs (algorithyms whatever) just have never been able to make me think the processed sound is better then the "natural" way it was meant to be played. I hope DPL II changes that, but I have not had a listen yet so I can't comment.

Yay,

first of all you can add 1000 dsp and a bunch of other useless feature and not clutter up the user inteface if its well designed.

-adding dsp will not degrade performance of the pre/pro. they are just adding more code to the chip.

ideally i would like to see a usb port on the pre/pro that allows me to choose wich dsp modes i like to have on the pre/pro.

of course I will take a flexible bass management system similar to the b&k 307 and maybe even 5 band parametric eq over any dsp mode.

My real answer would be "Don't Care". But to avoid any chance of being disqualified by not giving a legal answer, I'll say "yea". I'll never use them, but as long as they don't bother me, why not put them in?

No. My Yamaha has them and I never use them.

Yes on the Dolby Pro-Logic II.

Nay on the other DSP modes. Never use them.
