Hi all, my first post and I could use some quick help here. Upgrading from my current setup to a 1066 or 1068. Now the 1068 will obviously be more expensive, but how much of an improvment would it be?
My priorities are first of that it sounds good in 2ch, is there a great deal of differance there between them?
1068 does have PL2x, a feature I'd like to have using a complete 7.1 setup (B&W 700 series). Is there an option to use all 7 channels on the 1066 as well? On my Pioneer that I use at the moment I can force it to use the surround back channels with 5.1 materials, even though the reciver don't have PL2x. How does that work on 1066? Even if it could only play SR L/ SR R in the Surround back channels as well I think thats enough for me atm.
Are there any other differances of importance that could help me decide? What do you people out there think? Mostly I'm woundering about the soundquality, is there a differance?
Hoping to get some help and input on this, rather fast would much appriceated, as will have to decide rather fast.
Many thanks // Peter
