I listen to lossless through airtune sometimes but most of the time it source is from cd player spdif out to my DAC and RCA and than to the mono blocks.
When it comes to video processing I currently use a Yamaha rx-v1700 it sounds great except I think it's missing a signature sound like the Accuphase/Mcintosh.
For the A1400-8 I honestly don't need 8 outputs, would be nice to have the similar power but 2 channels only. It appears though Axiom will not have the 2 channel version anytime soon. The question is what will be the difference between the 8 and the 2 in "sound"?
From suggestions I've gather so far I more lean towards getting a Mcintosh solid state stereo preamp and just use one of the Line in to do the HT bypass. But, I have no idea how it would sound once it's hooked up to the A1400-8/M80v2s lol anyone has auditioned a similar setup before?
