  Arriving in stores this week is the new Sherwood-Newcastle P-965 pre/pro. Although not THX certified or equiped, it has an amazing feature set for a list price of $1500.00 See it at www.sherwoodusa.com. The prior model from Sherwood was well regarded by both audio-journalists and owners. I has some of the features of the Anthem, like bass management (digital) for the multi-channel input. Best of all, it has DPLIIx, which not even the Anthem has yet. It comes with a remote that is a Sherwood-branded MX-500, too. I can't say what it sounds like yet, but it's on my short list. You should be able to get something off of list price.

      According to Sherwood America's marketing chief, the P-965 ships to dealers this week. Oh, did I mention the P-965 has an upsampler for digital inputs? It upsamples the front L/R channels of any digital input, even in DD or DTS modes. If well implemented, this could be awesome.

  There are no $1000 processors that sound like the Anthem. The B&K Ref 50 lists for $2K and is very good, but if you want Anthem sound you have to pay for it. A recurring issue in high end is people compromising on what they want, then buying it anyway within six months. I suggest you buy a used cheap processor now and save for the Anthem. You will not be disappointed.

      I am very pleased with the Fosgate FAP-T1. It is very similar to the Outlaw with the addition of a video monitor on the front panel. Sound quality is excellent. I was also considering the B&K but reviews were mixed. I got he Fosgate new for $1500.
