This will be for my personal demo space and unfortunately it will have to process the audio. It hooks to an ADA Mach 3 though which may have some bass management features even when in 5.1 input mode. Not sure on that one. Network features/SACD would be a bonus but not required. I'm aware they are not created equal as far as setting options.

Any other heads up or comments on problems or tricks with hooking a player via multi-channel out are also appreciated. I've done it before but it's been awhile..from what I remember it worked fine and sounded great.
