Emotiva, Yamaha, or Outlaw

Which pre-amp would you buy?

Emotiva MMC-1

Yamaha RX-V2700

Outlaw 990

RX-V2700, because it has it's own uncolored amplifier. That allows you to save more to get an amplifier at a later date.

Well since you already have an Outlaw amp, you might as well the the preamp that goes with it.

Providing you have space in your rack for the beast! If I had room in mine I would buy in a flash.

I'm shocked that you would prejudice my coloured Outlaw Model 770 amp Seth!
In fact, especially when you use a yellow Yamaha!!

I appreciate the input.
The Yammy has the most features, but I would not be using its amp. that would be wasting a good amp, but I'm certain the Outlaw 770 is a much more robust amp.

I can't comment on the Outlaw. No experience with it.
I have stated in other posts that I have reservations about the Emotiva processors for their lack of internal EQing and, to a lesser extent, auto set-up.

Between Yammy and the Emo, my vote is for the Yammy, hands down.

I wasn't implying that the Outlaw was colored, I didn't even read your sig. The point is, it has an amp. If the Outlaw ever had a problem or you needed zone power for something else you would have the internal amplifiers to aid you. Not to mention the Yamaha has the most features, and is the only one that has HDMI audio support.
