After reading over their latest newsletter about the delay w/ the new Outlaw processor, I can honestly say that the Outlaws are doing the right thing. Personally, I didn't believe in Dolby Surround EX (and I still don't), but I respect the fact that some thought that it brought an enhancement in sound quality to their systems. Now comes the announcement of Dolby Digital EX (which I feel Dolby had developed all along), which will attempt to once again milk an upgrade from everyone by pushing our upgrade buttons and tempting us to shed our gear in favor of a discrete rear channel. Anyway, I have nothing but respect for Outlaw for putting the consumer first - even if it means yet another delay. It would be easy for them to put out what they have, but they wouldn't be happy w/ the decision, and ultimately, neither would we either. I highly doubt any of the other manufacturers would have done this. So instead of complaining about the 3 week delay, how about a little support. Besides, will 3 weeks make that big of a difference anyway? Especially compared w/ what you'll be getting in return.
