RE: fair enough, but...

You are looking at it from logical but particular point of view. I suspect that the market research indicates that there is profit to be optimized with such an array of AVRs but that there is so little market for a low-priced pre/pro that they do not bother. I do not have those numbers but the manufacturers probably do.

BTW, how many years did it take for Denon to market and pre/pro and, now that they are doing it, how much does it cost? I take that to indicate what they see as a profitable effort. All that despite our crying need for a low cost pre/pro with all the bells and whistles.
