Gene,
Don't sweat the self-promoting links. I'm pretty sure I speak for most people here when I say I have no problem with it. Besides, we like your site.

In reply to:
Upon consulting with Yamaha Engineering yesterday, they informed me that if you enable "Surround Back", the "Surround/Back/Presence" preamp outs reroute to the actual "Presence" channels. Then you can connect an external two channel amp to power those channels and have a full 9.1 set-up featuring their propietary DSP
ARRRG!!! It aggrevates the crap out of me that this sort of info isn't covered in the owner's manual. Is there some comprehensive alternative to the owner's manual?

Excellent review!!! By chance is there a possibility of a review for a Pioneer Elite TX series to compare their MCACC Auto-calibrating software.

Gene, to confirm your question, the 9.1 works with an external amp... hooked to the presence out jacks. It even works with DPIIx. I don't know what it sounds like, as I have had the 9.1 (actualy 9.2 for me as I have 2 subwoofers) hooked up since day one. I should really turn off the second amp to see if there is a difference.

Thanks Dave. My test unit didn't have PLIIx 
Oh well, guess I will test that feature on the RX-Z9
