Oh, I don't disagree that it's something for owners, and a cool thing to do, but to try to sell pre/pros now on that premise seems a little disingenuous.

Craig, I've been following the Trinnov for about a year and a half, since I read the extensive(20 page)lab and listening tests on the pro unit(about$12,000)by Dr. Rich in Sensible Sound. Yes, the Sherwood Newcastle implementation in the 972 has been delayed again and again. The current word from the SN U.S. representative is that December is the target, and that, admitting that they have a credibility problem with the issue, he's "reasonably confident" that it'll be available in '08.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

I thought it was you who'd mentioned Trinnov before. What are your impressions in the reading you've done?

Charles, the capabilities of the pro unit appear to be a significant advance over what is generally regarded as the best now available in receivers, i.e., the Audyssey MultEQ XT. The question is how much of the capability will transfer to the 972. There've been some sketchy reports that those who've heard the processor in the 972 recently have been very impressed, but these shouldn't be given too much weight, and extensive testing is needed.

John. You are full of salient information as always. I suspect that putting all that processing onto chips in a cost effective way is quite a challenge. Ken. Have a little simpathy for the marketing dweebs that wrote that. They have been locked out of this product for over a year. They had to write something!
