Hi. I am thinking about buying a 1050 this week. But I do have a few questions that I hope you can answer for me.

First off, I have a pair of 1977 Advent loudspeakers as my mains. They are 8 ohms. I love them. My rears are M&K's, which are 4 ohms. Can the 1050 handle this and not be angry? What would I set the impedence swich on the back of the 1050 to, 4 or 8 ohms?

Secondly, has Outlaw fixed the S-video switching problems with the 1050?

Third, I have a stereo powered sub, how do I run that out of the single sub-out?

Fourth, and lastly, in your honest opinion, is the Outlaw better than either the Marantz SR-7000 / 8000, the Pioneer Elite VSX-33tx, or the Denon 2802?

Thank you very much,
Loomis
