Purchased on E-Bay for a reasonable price. I loved the sonic holograpy. Unit sounds great with headphones, but even better when I connected it to my Carver TFM 22 225 wpc amplifier and Klipsch R26 tower speakers. Ran them full range without a subwoofer. For this particular test I only tested using a source CD unit (Carver TL 3220) in 2 channel stereo mode via analog RCA input. I would say this unit sounds awsome. To get the best enjoyment I highly recommend an amplifier that puts out 200+ watts per channel. I don't play my music real loud but at medium levels the sound is so much better with the higher wattage amplifier. Also I've discovered an enormous difference using an external amplifier compared to a receiver. I suppose this is primarily due to the wattage increase with the external amp. Note: There is no subwoofer preamp output as this is a Pro-Logic receiver (first version of Dolby surround). You can use the second room output for the sub and make a nice 2.1 setup. When set up this way you have to make sure both sources are selected as the same for the primary and secondary room. If you want to listed without the sub you can always just make sure the engage button is deselected on the secondary controls. Or you can split the mono center channel with an active electronic crossover sending lows to the sub and the highpass to the center channel amplifier. Some subwoofers have a built in output that accomplishes the same thing so if you have one of those that would work as well. One gripe is the display lights seem unusable. I can't read the text at night but it is possible there is a burnt out light I'm not sure because all of the led's work fine.Read full review

I use the preamp for the phono input capability and I'm pleased with the results. The bass and treble controls are a great enhancement to the sound of the speakers. Great features with this preamp.
