reading the Outlaw forum (for the past year)it seems that all the bugs are gone. they have been producing this amp (and clones) for a while now. the main bug was the hiss that seems to be gone now. I don't think you can go wrong. However I would be not consider a used one. You might find a rotel I think 1066 for about 1200 new and better yet for a lot less used. I looked at it when I was in the market and it seemed to have most of the features you need for HT. For 2 channels none come close to a good 2 ch tube amp.

On Outlaw I Know of at least 2 major problems discussed on the boards that are relatively reent. The Hiss from late last year and just recently a decoding problem with DTS EX (I believe that was the format). I also am not fond of the BM used in 6 chanel mode. They Rotel I have also considered. I agree on buying not just Outlaw but any processor used. Lot of times a great deal, but a lot of time you inherit someone elses problems. That has happened to me too many times. I have had very few problems buying TT, Speakers, Amps , Preamps and even the ones I had could problems with could be easily fixed. Buying used processors with all functions and software involved, I think I will go for a warrented unit.

      Now I may end up with a Outlaw. Now ruling it out, just worried with the bugs. And Yes all the clones seem to have it and Rotel has their on set of problems according to the Outlaws. My decision must come quicker than I had hoped as my Newcastle fried on Sunday night.
