"Now, we could have had the exact same debate if someone said the flagship Yamaha is way better then the flagship Denon."
Mike,
I would assume that would have been a much better debate, seeing as how Yamaha actually has a Flagship
Jack,
Thanks for your sharing your experiences, they mimic mine and many others that have or are considering a flagship receiver. It seems Milt and Aslam have abandoned ship :rolleyes
I will say, as I mentioned earlier, but was misquoted...the Outlaw 950+amps vs. Denon/Pioneer/B&K/Onkyo flagship battle will be interesting to watch unfold. I have every intention of ordering an Outlaw, but I will wait out the pre-orders first. Hopefully one of the early 950 owners will also have one of the flagship receivers to compare it to, preferrably the Pioneer or the Denon 5803 (with the advanced DACs and THX U2). I am very interested in the pre/amp section of these flagship receivers compared to a stand alone pre/amp+amp combo in the same price range. I did mention earlier that my money is on the flagship receiver...but after reading Mr. Simon's review of the 950 it's going to be close. He favors the 950 to an MC-1 and not just because of price, being that he owns both. Some very interesting gear on the horizon to say the least.
