I sell Integra as well and the 9.9 is currently not available but will be very soon. For that price it is very hard to beat once it becomes available. I have considered getting that one for myself as well. If only Integra would have come out with a profile 2.0 blu-ray to match it!

Well for price wise it's almost impossible to beat the new Integra 9.9 which is sweet avr. With the new audio codecs and the ISF controls those are two of quite a few features that the Sunfire doesn't offer. However, that doesn't less got nice the Sunfire receiver is. I haven't gotten a true answer out of Sunfire why they don't have the new chips for the new audio formats. They claim it's that they aren't happy with the chips yet, but yet there are high end avr's now using chips that do decode the new audio. Not to mention the HQV chip the Integra has.

Sunfire dropped the 5 channel amp this year and is only doing 7 channel amps. Makes sense since this is the trend of home theaters now as well as some blu-ray tracks that will have dedicated sound to the additional 2 channels. Retail on the TGR-401 (AVR) is $4,000 Retail on the TGP-401 (pre-amp) is $3,500 Retail on the TGA-7401 (7 x 400w amp) is $4,450 Retail on the TGA-7201 (7 x 200w amp) is $3,250

Specs are now posted on Sunfires website. Click on products and then it's the second picture down. Then there's a pdf of the 401 series as well as product information at the bottom of the page.

IndyKlipschFan - came across this post since I am a Klipsch Dealer and also a Sunfire dealer. The 401 series are now shipping which I thought you might like to know. I have personally seen and listened to them and they are nothing short of amazing. They just started shipping this month. Let me know if you are ever looking for one.
