Thanks Chris,

I have read through the 518 user guide and have to admit (being an engineer) that I do like the sound of this processor as much from the point of being able to hear the effect that the various processing modes have on sound as anything, the fact it gives additional inputs is a bonus.

I agree about trying to only buy hardware with coax out but the Sky HD and Mac gave me no choice. I am likely to replace the HDD PVR and DVD with a single unit which will be coax out (Not likely to be able to afford a M DVD player any time soon!)

What have found experimenting with yur 518?

Do you know if any of the past or current surround processors have any of the functionality that the 518 has?

Cheers

Spencer
