audio refinement pre 2 dsp


Anybody have any direct experience with this new Audio Refinement AV/Preamp called the Pre2 DSP? Price is attractive although it does not have the dolby pro logic II..it can be had through upgrade at some point in the future according to the company propoganda. For a new product from a company such as this it appears attractive when compared to the Outlaw 950 (yes, substantially cheaper but it is not from YBA/Audio Refinement).

I've been able to find nothing on this product other that store ads.

We purchased an Audio Refinement Pre2DSP and will acquire the upgrade card (supposedly due April next) to add DPLII. We tried out the Arcam DIVA AV200 receiver; nice but there were a couple of things we did not like so it went back. That, by the way if it is reliable, is a pretty good value in a 5.1 receiver; good two channel sound and common formats. Down side is format selection for digital sources is non overrideable; you cannot override dolby digital to listen to same source in stereo for example.

Next up is an amplifier. Thinking a five channel; proceed, pass, krell, classe are candidates. Another hunt.
