I finally got the "red dot" 950. I can say without a doubt that the improved version has a MUCH MUCH lower noise floor than my previous unit. Previously, I only noticed the "hiss" with analog channels (VCR, tuner, TV)but now I finally hear silence!!!

First thing I noticed is that I need to increase the speaker gains about 2-3 db per channel.

All I can tell people is to be patient, because this processor IS the best bang for your buck. If you look at my older posts, I was comparing it to my Meridian 561 which is VERY unfair considering the price differences!!

Second thing is that the 3 second on screen delay is now gone??? That was my favorite setting since 0 is worthless and 5 is way too long. I would like to see a 1 or 2 second delay honestly.

I have yet to really put the processor through its paces, but will keep everyone updated...........
