Outlaw Separates vs. Arcam 350 Receiver

I know most people here will prefer most separates to most receivers, but i've heard this receiver and have been very impressed. I have not heard the outlaw separates but have read many rave reviews. The comparison i'm considering is the Outlaw 990 Preamp and 7500 Amplifier (200W x5). Both list at $2500 and get rave reivews.

Anybody w/ any thoughts on this issue?

Anybody actually heard both of these or compared them?

Thanks,

Thanks for both responses. The Arcam 350 does do HDMI w/ switching and has 7.1 audio. Given Tgrisham's response it seems i'd be better leaning toward the Arcam as i prefer more for audio and may or may not bypass the reciever for video, so the flexibility is not as important for video. as avguygeorge brought up, i do plan on adding HD-DVD/BluRay to the mix quite soon (maybe wait about 6-12 more months for some settling out and players that actually decode the new audio formats as no receiver/preamps do it yet.

any other thoughts are still very welcome.
