Sherbourn Audio PT-7020C4 Home Theater Processor

Purchased new from a local Audiogoner in June for a backup processor (so I can get my Anthem D2v serviced) and then to set up a second system. I have decided not to  go this route. This is a terrific buy for someone looking for an audiophile quality processor. It does process 3D. More importantly it still has a video scaler/processor something newer preamps do not contained. While irrelevant for Blu-Ray it helps improve Netflix and TV Cable imaging - this is not to be discounted as to impact
