KeithH,
I think Denon did the right thing. I bought a 9000 and never did see the chroma bug. The upgrade was a confidence builder for me. Had the 9000 been delayed, I would have dug deep into my pockets and went elsewhere. The problem was minor and was fixed in a very easy and professional manner.
A more serious issue for me is that CD playback is a bit hard and not really first rate. It is very good but doesn't quite make the music "magical". I will either replace it or get a CD dedicated transport or player. DVDA's sound wonderful and it will be with some regret that I trade up.
Did you have troubles with your update or was the chroma bug on your unit so bad that the two or three week delay in getting the upgrade was more than a mild annoyance. I am really interested in finding out how videophile (I am an audiophile first and foremost) owners weathered the period before the upgrade.
Just think, I almost bought a Proceed DVD transport.... You know I am counting my blessings.
