Ouch... The M17 Vi2 processor is 8K. A bit north of what I was planning to spend. Nice looking unit though.

The T778 Reciever is $3500.

Better buy something quick before parts run out. Then again, if you buy now, who knows what the hell you're going to get?

OK. I won't bother telling you about reports of purchasing departments making component substitutions without approval from Engineering.

Good to know, thanks! I have not purchased from them before. I'll give them a look.

Are you happy with the 8805? The 8805A has made my short list, but it is a bit more money than I was planning to spend, unless I go with the refurbished unit.

I’m basically happy with it. It’s really a stand in till a reasonably priced 24+ channel prepro comes out … hopefully with Dirac or ARC

I'll probably regret asking, but what are you doing with 24 channels?
