Hi folks,
Looking to pull the trigger on a new processor. Ultimately very interested in Dirac ART, so a processor that is pretty definitively getting that, or already has it (Storm) is a priority. I dont think I can afford Trinnov, so this is my best bet.
It seems like the contenders are either the Marantz Av10 or JBL SDP-58, although the cheapest Storm could be in the mix, but I still dont know what I can get one of those on the street for. I "think" they are almost double street price of these other two.
I am leaning toward the marantz, simply because I already owned the SDP-55 that stayed with a previous house, but it was a buggy mess. I think that is resolved now, but its a bad taste. I also believe that the Marantz measures a lot better (??)
This will be paired with JBL SC4 in walls for LCR, SC-7 for surrounds, and sc-5 in ceiling for Atmos. probably a couple of Seaton custom 18" subs in a baffle wall, although the subs are still subject to change per budget.
Just looking for anything that might sway me one way or the other. Thanks!
