Hello All,

I got hooked on audio/video again because I wanted to upgrade my subwoofer. All of a sudden, I learned that ProLogic is obsolete... Well, now I need SIX channels.

Under consideration are Outlaw 1050, Denon 2802 & Marantz SR6200. To me the competition have a sight advantage because they have ProLogic II. It would be nice for TV... However, Outlaw has better bass management. My 15 year old Paisly tower have very tight base below 40 hz. My 12" Cerwin Vega rears do ok on bass too. I think that crossing over at 60hz I'll blend better than 80hz for Denon/Marantz. I also like the idea of spending less. Since my speakers would probably need to be upgraded before I would enjoy the benefits of the high end components (i.e. 950/770), I don't want spend more than I need to...

My dilema is $100 (savings) and better base management vs. ProLogic II. I'm especially interested to know if anyone has experience with both the 1050 and Marantz.

So, do you guys miss have ProLogic II?

BTW, new subwoofer will be SVS - replacing huge/ugly band pass with two Soundstream 12's. With all speakers having efficiency of 96 or higher SPL, I don't think power is much of an issue.

Thanks!

Leon
