Has anyone else noticed that last few weeks high end pre/pros being sold on ebay @ 1/2 price and less?
In particular, Lexicon MC12, normally $13~14k, now @ $6800+. The MC8 and MC4 from 1/2 ~ 1/3 the price.
In the case of MC12s, they have the new MC12 HD, with 6 HDMI inputs. And from what I've been reading, there are still no pre/pros or receivers that can handle DTS HD MA. Though blu-ray can output it, at least on PS3.

Some are refurbished - makes me think units used at CES... :dont-know

"Indeed, not!!"
Not all are refurbs, at least one is new, two used, 12B new. The MC4 is new,The RT10, RT20 dvds are new.
Like I said, the new gear is coming out with HDMI, which makes all the rest yesterday's has beens.
But with that said, right now there's not a receiver or pre/pro that does DTS HD MA. So I'm in no hurry to get a blu-ray/ hd dvd player and a new receiver or pre/pro.
I don't think blu-ray is going to last.....
Sony shot itself in the foot again methinks...
I haven't jumped into either one. But what I saw on Netflix last week was they have at least 200 titles on blu-ray and very few on hd dvd.
But you can't access DTS MA on either format as there are no receivers or pre/pros that can do it yet.
