From what I have read in the forums both the 975 and 976 are reported to sound better than the 990 although I would temper that with the "new shiny object" enthusiasm that pervades the audio world. I don't know how many owners of both the 990 and either a 975 or 976 have heard a big difference. The primary difference would be on the video side and the ability of the processors to decode the newer audio codecs internally.
