I have been happy with my tagMcLaren avr32 but am wondering which of the new crop of digital processors does justice to sound as it does.

I am particulary interested in fixing room deficits-I have done this manually but it takes a LOT of time and effort with a radio shack meter.

The integra 9.8 is getting a lot of press but I am interested also in the nadt175 offerring. Of course classe announced the ssp800 and cary is playing footsie with the 11/11a/11v combo. krell hasnt yet stepped up to the plate. And meridian and lexicon i think are trying to expand more into the popular segment. I am interested in improved sound and a very low noise floor as well, of course. Certainly the belcanto digital processor is great but it only has stereo outputs. Which one could serve music as well as video sources well? or is this too much to ask?

It is not too much to ask but it is too soon as most of those have not hit the streets yet.

BTW, the BelCanto pre/pro does have multichannel outputs.
