In Reply to: Here's the scoop on the AVP upgrade we've all been waiting for posted by j_thunders on April 12, 2002 at 21:58:38:
This is not good news. I once owned the PAV (used) and eagerly anticipated the upcoming PDSD which I thought at the time would set me back another $1k or so. We all know now that the PDSD costs a lot more than $1k - think it is around $4-$5k. Anyway, I quickly sold my PAV as I didn't want to get stuck with a box that didn't support the newer digital surround decoders. You might really want to consider selling your AVP and going with something else. After all, you may have problems later selling the AVP in the future due to the high upgrade costs. Still can't believe that they didn't outfit the AVP with high quality 24-bit DACs on all channels.

but you are right, It's gotta go, it's just a matter of when. Unfortunately, the price on the things is in the shitter. Audiogon 6 months ago, $2750; 3 months ago, $2400-2500; last week, one for $1900 shipped, plus a bunch of goodies, and the next day one for $1700 shipped.
