List is $1500 on this home theater unit.  I am considering an Anthem processor for the HT.  I have the original box, etc.  Excellent condition.  Has great DACs in it so audio is very good for stereo listening as well.

Prefer Paypal, shipping will be about $25 due to weight and insurance.

Pete-I've been doing some shopping for a new HT Pre-Pro myself & the Emotiva was one unit I was considering...was/is there something specific about this unit that's not doing it for you?
I've just purchased a new turntable (first one in 20yrs.) & I'm wondering about my current Pre-Pro (an older Parasound) & it's analog phono stage..was the Emotiva digital processing o.k?
Are the functions well thought out & set up for user friendliness?
Have you auditioned the Anthem unit?
Thanx in advance for any feedback you would be willing to share.

If this had HDMI I would keep it.  And I mean HDMI audio capabilities.  I like the unit, set up is easy.  It looks great, sounds great, you can rename your inputs, etc.  Unfortunately it will cost me much more to change and I am not sure I need the AVM50 with video processing or go with the AVM40 w/o it.  In the end I am trying to be ready for the newer surround formats and simplify using HDMI cabling.

Forgot to mention, I also have an outboard HDMI switcher with a software disc that supposedly links the signal with 2 of the paths in the pre - DVD and Sat.  I have not tried this out and will include it with the pre.
