The DTC-9.8 is a killer pre/pro. Not sure why you wouldn't go for that one at its awesome price.

That being said, Pre/pros now offer all the same stuff they did 10 years ago. Less noise due to being in a different box & on different circuitry than the amp. While I wouldn't spend $3000 on a pre/pro like I did around 6 years ago, I think the $1500 for the DTC-9.8 is a fair price and I won't feel ripped off when the inevitable HDMI 1.4 comes out (surely with DUAL audio codec streaming for PiP or something of the like, I'm sure).
