Fred, after about 17 years of development, Sherwood Newcastle finally released the R-972 with Trinnov for general sale some months ago. Both
Sound&Vision and
HomeTheater Magazine published generally favorable reviews and lab tests a couple months ago.
As the tests show, as far as basic amplification goes the R-972 is a standard unit many examples of which are available for less than half the price. The difference of course is Trinnov and further study is needed to determine if the room EQ is as good or better than Audyssey MultEQ, and if the remapping feature to compensate for poor speaker placement is effective(assuming that it's needed in a particular setup).
