Yeah, 8K is a lot to spend. But how about 13K for the Theta CBII!?! Wow, Theta really is proud of that thing, huh?
Of course the MC12 may be close, what, 10 with XLRs? I know at least one of our new members is shopping pre-pros, and just can't seem to find what he wants for less than the 13K CBII. Ideas?
Let's analize what is out there, the pros and cons, and see if we can help out here.
I own the MC-1, a great pre-pro, but of course, aging relative to today's uploadable software options, it is a digital processor, so the benefits for DVD Audio and SACD just aren't there for the most part, cause everything gets converted to digital anyway.
But if you want just a good HT controller, well, the MC-1 is tough to beat, especially at used prices. I traded up for mine from a DC-1. But just couldn't justify the trade up to the MC12, so I didn't even consider it.
