Best 7.1 pre amp used or demo for 2000.00???

The 1068 does not have any display screen, it has the view of most Recievers and such, your TV monitor will allow you to access menus from a distance for easy veiwing, I just dont think that a screen on any Processor serves ANY purpose except to dazzle, and it takes alot more then a 3 inch screen to make me go WOW.
I agree about looking into Parasound, I like there products and have an amp of theirs in my current system.
I notice most are stearing you into more expensive gear and thats great, but if you want new and a warranty of 5 years, for the features you get with the 1068 it is hard to beat for the money, email me if you would like more opinion from me

Ok, it looks like I have some research and listening to to. At least now I know what models to look at. Thank you chadnliz for being the voice of reason. I think most people have to be convinced to spend more, I am the other way around. You make a good case for the 1068.....and I am hearing you loud and clear. Thanks also to those who have steered me in the direction of something better. I will be checking out those options too.

No matter what you decide...aint' upgrading freakin great?!!!

I do like swapping new stuff into my system. Especially when it makes a difference. I hope the new processor justifies the dollars spent. My X girlfriend did the math and informed me that I could buy her a three carat diamond for what I have spent on my system. I said "Yes, but what do you suppose it would sound like ?" Long story short,I am going to miss her! However, now that B&W has the new diamond tweeter I am thinking that maybe she was onto something!

LOL, One time my wife asked me to tell her my fantasy, and I asked why?.."your not in them!"
