Does anybody have any experience with the Sherwood Newcastle AVP-9080 preamp/processor?
I'd be using a HK PA5800 to power and it would run my existing Energy speaker setup. Unless I pickup a set of Paradigm Monitor 9's for cheap next week.
I've been thinking of a receiver with pre-outs as an intermediate step to seperates, but I just this and thought, hmmm...
The only thing it doesn't have is an optical out, but seeing as I don't have that at the moment, I don't think I would miss it. It's got S-video switching, which is something that I need.
It sure looks sexy.
