I would have to agree with you here Roy. I would be primarily using the BDP-95 for MC because I have a dedicated 2CH transport.

Please don't get me wrong, I am all for tube with the right implementation. I have MC2301s & C1000C/T on the way!

I'm guessing that you may be able to do some comparison by running some 2CH material followed by some MC material down-mixed .i.e. listening via L/R & then FL/FR.
My bigger concern from running the 2-ch tube output for movies/surround would be the extra time on the tubes when it's not really needed. My guess is that it will sound better in that configuration vs. different. We will find out soon!
