Hi;

First post to the site.

I am seriously considering the 950/770 combo deal,and I have one major Fly in my Ointment.

I been seduced by SACD/DVDA and love the multichannel sound from these format's.

Now for my problem: From what I can tell when using the Direct Bypass (5.1 analog external inputs)you can only adjust the bass and treble for the "front left and right" speaker's.

This is how my Denon 3300 operates in "Direct Mode",and I sent an Email to Outlaw,and they confirmed that the 950 operates the same (tone only adjusted for front's in Direct mode".

Here's the rub-Doesn't it make sense that when using a Hi Resolution audio source for Multichannel operation that tweaking the front left and right mains while NOT being able to adjust the center and rear's tone throw's the whole effect out of balance???

This also apply's to Dolby Digital and DTS movie soundtrack's too.

I was hoping that the 950 might have given me the ability to change tone setting's on all 5 channel's or 7.

Anybody have these component's hooked up to SACD/DVDA unit's and confirm??
I will probably purchase the unit's regardless,but was hoping to be able to control the tone for all channel's (neurotic tweeker)

Thanks
