Hey gang,

I've been thinking about upgrading my 1070 to get support for the new audio codecs as well as some room-correction software and the occasional no-audio, lockup issues. Is the SR5004 a lateral move as far as preamp/amp section or an upgrade/downgrade? The 1070 power supply is certainly beefier than the SR5004 but that's all I can really tell from looking at specs. Funny I was actually looking at the SR5004 and SR7002 before the Outlaw's made this announcement. I was leaning towards the SR7002 but with the Outlaw's endorsement maybe the SR5004 would be just fine. The other option I was considering was the NAD T747, although it's a bit pricier.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
-John
