Here you will find all you need to know about the TA-E9000ES processor.
I have owned it for several years and it performs quite well considering how little it costs. Make sure you get 2.01 firmware (2.5 is for Japan). I can't speak for the Citation but the Sony is hard to beat in the DD/DTS HT performance range at it's price point. Several
used units at Agon in the $750-800 range presently. Really, you get about 90% of the really expensive processors in the HT area of performance. Now, 2 channel, that is a different matter.
