I think Charles has or had an Integra receiver so I’m wondering if anyone is using one with there Axioms. A local installer I’m talking with can get me a very nice deal (authorized dealer) on and Integra DTR-8.9. Main reason I’m upgrading is the new audio formats not the power but I didn’t see the point in starting another thread.

The DTR-8.9 should have all the power I need (unless I get upgradeitis). I specifically don’t want Dolby PLIIz. I already think PLIIx is a waste and don’t want to be spending time tinkering with PLIIz since I if I have it I know I will.

I’ve given up on the Sherwood Newcastle and the Outlaw. Maybe next upgrade Trinnov will be in the picture but I can’t see getting either of those with all the problems they’ve had and still seem to be having.

So any thoughts on the Integra 8.9 for running M80s?
