True. But I don't know why we should expect the change in ownership to affect development of products that are in the Model 978's position. If it was still on the drawing board, that might be a different matter. The Model 978 would only change if Silicon Image forced a change - which would be an odd thing for them to do if they want their ownership of ABT's technology to be profitable in the long term.
I would tend to agree with you, however, call me a bit of a cynic in that all too often, after a merger and/or acquisition, corporations don't always act in a logical manner. I would refer you to what Klipsch, not long after their purchase, did to the Mirage brand and others in the API stable of speakers and what, after their purchase, what Audiovox might have intended for them. Time will tell.
Generally speaking, those on the forums that are Klipsch owners, are not too happy about this situation either.
