Thanks for all of the responses. Is there much of a difference in SQ between the earlier G68 and the newer G68SL? I have read that the newer model has apodizing filters, but I thought that a SW update would allow the older units to do that too. Is there much of a difference between them? and how does the newer G68s compare to older 861s?
