Ruben,In fairness, you're paying the retail price difference for the upgrade, which is US$1500.
It is my understanding that the line stage is also updated, but I don't know that with absolute certainty.

But $4500 for the original HTS (5.1) to the HTS if and a big IF (a) you are the original owner and (b) is less than one or two years old. So I have been told.Is it worth the $4500 upgrade?
All I ask is for a chance to prove that money can't make me happy.
Big, Lobsta:You are getting back a brand new piece. The chassis and all interior components are replaced. The original MSRP was US$4500, and you're paying a $1000 premium over brand new.
Given the age of the HTS-1, I'd say this is not unreasonable -- of course that's me talking about spending your money ;-)

I cannot afford two more speakers and I don't beleive that SACD/DVDa will have music I enjoy in that format.

Well If I upgrade to 7.1 is not because I want to add two more speakers. I will because the hts2 7.1 is, according to the news release a better DAC with multiple crossovers settings. Please if someone has done the upgrade report back.

But I would not upgrade just so I could listen to SACD/DVDa when there isn't any material that appeals to me available yet (remasterd or new).I probably would consider upgrading in a couple of years and consider all my options.
