Good to hear. My z8.8 (4.2.2) starts to become too small for my system, so I'm looking for a second one or a larger one.

One unit, which IMHO merits a closer look is the French Trinnov ST-2 HIFI or its brother ST-2 Pro (trinnov.com). At half the price of a DG-58 the Trinnov units offer a unique four microphone measurement system, which allows a 3D analysis of the listening environment, and they feature an awesome bunch of correction possibilities. The Trinnovs run on Intel dual core processors. Trinnov claims they would need at least half a dozen DSPs to do the same job.

currently using a DG-58 in an all Accuphase system, well, except for a bunch of pro gear
