In Reply to: Some advice requested on upgrading from my Proceed posted by Larry S on March 21, 2004 at 08:49:53:
Has the Proceed stopped working ?I still have mine and I hope it continues to work until I can afford/have the mindset to blow kilobucks on it's replacement. I only use it for DD/DTS decoding and composite video switching (I bought a separate multichannel preamp to take care of music). I'm also looking at separate component and/or DVI switchers to do my video switching.
As a Preamp for music, I think it still might be amongst the best out there at it's price point for pre/pros (I did audition the highly touted Arcam Pre/pro and continue to prefer the Proceed). I don't need all the "cheesy surround modes", so I can afford to wait on a processor upgrade.
I'm hoping to find a DVD source with built-in DD/DTS decoding and DACS to rival the Proceeds'. Then I can lose the Proceed without bothering to find a replacement.
Follow Ups:
Thanks to the one person who offered some help.I'm taking my AVP to a Lexicon dealer this weekend for a $4,000 credit (deal currently set to expire end of March). That, plus $5K cash, will get me an MC12 (not much room to negotiate on this deal, but they offered to pay the sales tax).
I figure I'd get less than $1k IF I could even find someone willing to buy my AVP. There are a some decent preampro's I could get for less than the $5k, and the MC12's remote is pretty sad, but I really respect Lexicon's track record in offering tradeup's for its customers. It's almost like they are not part of Harmon Kardon :))
