It's supposed to be incredible when listening to DVD-A. 6.1 channels of sound that supposedly put stereo to shame. I've been trying to find it, and finally located it at Fry's Electronics. It's priced at $499. And it is very easily bi-amped- no expensive active crossovers etc. The DVD/CD player is $300. I'm going to listen to it tomorrow, and will let you know what I hear. Check out vintage asylum.com and search for SA-XA70. Guys are going crazy over these things.
