I have a Proceed PAV and a PAV/PDSD pair. The PAV is analog, the PDSD digital. They need to be purchased as a pair for surround sound. The sound quality is excellent. You may be able to have a PAV repaired by other than Harmon, even locally. My units, although no longer in use, served reliably for decades, and still sound fine when I fire them up. I replaced the PAV/PDSD pair with a Cary Cinema 11a to get the lossless codecs and HDMI. I soon gave up on HDMI. I replaced the Cary with a Parasound JC-2 analog stereo preamp, and use an Oppo BDP-105 for surround and the latest codecs. Stereo from the Oppo, a Sony XA5400ES, and JC-3 phono stage go through the JC-2, surround from the Oppo goes directly to the amps.
I wouldn't as leery about the PAV as the previous posters.
