I'm new here, so hello all.



I'm not certain this looked like the right area for this, I'm assuming it is as it's about amps.



Did any of you see the piece about Pioneer's new AV amp (http://www.digital-lifestyles.info/display_page.asp?section=platforms&id=888) that has a S/PDIF interface and Windows Media 9 Audio support on-board with Dolby 5.1 support.



Are you generally excited about this idea, or think it's a dead duck?

Welcome to AV Talk :clap:



It is an interesting development, although most WM9 capable devices have been DVD players so far, it makes sense that a company as forward thinking as Pioneer would put the audio decoder into one of their amps. 8)~8-)~:cool:

Nice first post powcom, and welcome :nod:



I'm a big Pioneer fan and this new incarnation of the legendary AX10 just seems to be pushing the envelope even further. I just wonder when they're going to come up with a new model number for their flagship though :D~:-D~:grin:
