It's true, this was taken from The Wall Street Journal: Marantz Japan, Denon to Merge Marantz Japan Inc. and Denon Ltd., two midsize Japanese manufacturers of audiovisual equipment, said Thursday they will merge operations in May under a joint holding company. The firms said the merger will...

BruceD is absolutely correct. As such, is anyone else a little peeved that they would claim direct pass and then say that info is directed to the sub? Come on, this is a mid-fi unit. We aren't clueless here... I was really rooting for the Rotel to blow away the Outlaw so I could get my...

Not such great news on the DACs, though only our ears can be the judge. The Anthem was designed how long ago and they're using more advanced DA/AD chips? I really hope it's a good sounding unit as I'm not on the wait list for Outlaw and I want a working, separates-based HT before May! It...

And, how fast are they going to crank these suckers out!

BillG, :emoji_thumbsup: Great way to look at this... You have me convinced that the 1075 is the way to go over the 1095 for surrounds and center. I was a bit worried about the headroom of this amp, but not any more. Thanks, Russ

Jeremy, Hope these suggestions help you get back on track. Your best bet may be to fork up the bones and get a 20-amp circuit anyway. When I move into my next place in the next few months, that will be a priority. Though I understand that it's a pain in the a@# when you haven't budgeted...

Thanks Mark. That's the way I'm leaning. It just seems like $1000 is a pretty steep price to pay for more headroom. Now for my big boys, that's one thing, but for surounds rated at 120w, it's a different story. That said, are there any 1095 owners out there who disagree? I'm thinking...

Tony, Parasound is another good option. It may come down to which dealer gives me a better discount. If my Rotel rep isn't flexible... Russ

Kevin, Good point about the phase control on subs. I must say that I experimented with my sub's phase settings and could not hear any difference. Here’s a little story about product pricing. Williams Sonoma launched a new line of toasters a while back. In doing so, they released 3...

Ok, so I'm looking to put together a 7.1 system from scratch. My original thought was to buy a 1095 + 1080, giving me 200 watts all around. The MSRP of this option is roughly $3k. Now I ask myself, why do I need 200 watts per channel for my center and surrounds? My B&W CDM's are only rated...

Hey All, I've been lurking on this board for far too long without sharing my own thoughts. I'll chalk that up to my subconscious telling me I'm supposed to be studying (I'm in grad school)! As a business school student I find the Outlaw debate remarkable. While no marketing expert, I think...
