Outlaw ,the internet order only branch of Atlantic Technologies ,has garnered a very favorable review recently for it's 950 pre/pro. It sells at a reasonable cost and has above average analog stereo capabilities. It also has received some above average marks too, for it's bass management flexablities . Couldn't hurt to check one out (reviews), if you insist on a dual duty preamp/processer. As for me, "Ain't nothin' like a seperate, dedicated rig for each type of duty, very much agreed on that point, just my .02, Good Luck, SG.
