Do you recommend this Outlaw deal?

It's hard to beat the the outlaw stuff at that pricepoint. A lot of bang for the buck. Easy to deal with the people there, also.

Good luck,

Superb customer service, great products at the price point. I have had a 950 for 2 years, and like it quite a bit. It has some serious competition out there now in a similar price range, such as Rotel, but nothing like that combo for $2k!
The 950 is not the greatest 2-channel pre out there, but does have an analog by-pass mode that works very well.
The only problem I have is that it wont accept coax digital from a computer sound card, and I have tried a few different ones. The optical works fine, however. As for customer service, they sent me 3 different units at their cost trying to alleviate the problem. I dont know if that problem has been fixed or not. They have a pretty active message board on their site, you could ask if it matters to you.

Jdcrox,

Are you sure that the coax digital was enabled on your soundboard? Must are disabled by default. I have a friend that is running his computer into a 950 via coax digital.
