"Outlaw has already indicated that they are pursuing HDMI v1.3 for their next generation (although I suspect that they, and many others in the same position that they are, would just as happily wait another couple of years for HDMI v1.3 to mature and go with HDMI v1.1 for the time being). Whatever they do along those lines will be a much more consumer-friendly and flexible product than the DN-A7100 looks to be."


Yes after hastily posting this, I noticed in another thread that Outlaw is already going after v1.3

And I do agree that this Denon isn't all that appealing, and I wasn't suggesting that Outlaw copy it. I was thinking more along the lines of the bare bonesness of it, and with some of the Outlaw "touch" something like this would be perfect for those looking forward to audio over HDMI...like me.

In any case, I did read over at AVS that it will overlay DLPIIx over PCM.

And I can't wait for Outlaw's next pre/pro.
