ZDoug Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 I keep hearing that B&K is offering a replacement for the 307. Has anyone heard of it. Where can I find info on it.Does any one know if B&K is getting into THX Ultra 2 certification with this new model? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PYRO Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 Should be coming out shortly. I saw it on a electronics store webpage from Flordia. Soundstage or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boa12 Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 saw they also have a new pre/pro - the reference 50 - out. so the 507 should be that pre/pro combined w/ a good amp in the same chassis. check out/do a search on www.hometheaterforum.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boa12 Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 iD, yeah they are the same - dolby & thx jointly developed EX. thx uses dolby tech for the EX encoding & decoding so that's really dolby. thx extras like timbre matching, eq & such are done post-processing. so they can be done on top of stereo or dts formats besides the various dolby formats including prologic.
