Thanks nfaguys,
Like you I'm not too interested in Auto-EQ and the like, they cannot do anything me and my sound meter cannot do...and the sophisticated room EQ inside the Marantz is so far off...
Also the video switching is not too important for me, as I use a DVDO HD+ scaler, but the two DVI inputs will come in handy as the HD+ has only one DVI input.
Am I right in supposing the setup of the 990 is not overlaid on the DVI output image. so I have to switch to component to see the setup?
