phatlac,

Most of the people who post here, including me, are happy Outlaw owners. We often talk about quirks and usability issues, but for the most part we've plunked down our money and are very happy with the 950. We are certainly going to be biased toward the 950. I certainly am, I don't think you can touch it at the price point. I didn't consider hardly anything else.

If you want to get a less biased view you may find that at www.avscience.com or www.hometheaterforum.com .

Personally I am extremely happy with my 950 and would buy it again.

Sherwood Newcastle may be coming out with a pre-pro in the same price range in the next few months. It may be worth checking that out if you've not in a hurry. I have had good experience with their gear as well (and am using their 5 channel amp with my 950).
