Honestly, I bought my 1050 only a couple of months ago. I almost balked because I thought Outlaw might upgrade. I took the leap with the Outlaw and have been happy since.

Honest admission #2: The sound of the 1050 is, IMHO, excellent on movie soundtracks. The sound of the 1050 on music, IMHO, is good for its price range and about twice as much but a nice integrated amp would be better sounding. I'm waiting for more budget, ahh...money, to upgrade to an external amp.

Just curious, what kind of speakers are you going to be driving?

Oh yeah...I haven't heard about the december newsletter either.
