What features exist in the Classe processor that are important to you that the SP3 doesn't have?
I hope you pick ours

So, Gary, thank you for responding to me.
I have been on a quest to find a new pre/pro for some time now, and the more I read about what's out there, the more I get a little more confused.
I had a Bryston setup a number of years ago with a SP1.7, Bryston amps, + PMC speakers.
I sold it all as my wife wanted to move into a condo.
That worked out well, for about 1 week, until we both said that condo living was not for us. So we sold the condo & moved back to a house, where I now have a dedicated room, about 14.5' x 22' x 8', and had to start over. Enough crying on my part.
So, I went and purchased everything new, and could only get a front projector, with B & W CT series speakers behind a perforated screen with 3 speakers in front + 2 subs and 2 in-wall speakers in the rear.
I went with a Pioneer Elite receiver SC-68 and an Oppo 103D (which I just upgraded from another Oppo).
So, I am now looking for separates, and am looking for a pre/pro.
With the news from CEDIA, I am wondering if Atmos will catch on & am pretty sure that 4K is going to be bigger in a few years. I guess that my pre.pro does have to be upgradable to be able to accommodate these features.
So, now down to the task at hand, and that is to get separates for myself.
Bryston vs Classé?
Just let me hear the Bryston in a home Theatre set-up!
Gary, what are your areas of work at Bryston?
