|  E492 vs E800 in 6Ch Ladies and Gents a little help if you would be so kind ..... Financial restrictions mean my desire to improve my home cinema is limited to s/hand purchases atm. At the heart of my setup are a Toshiba SD-420 DVD player, Arcam Alpha 9 sterio amp and Yamaha DPS-E492 surround processor. For movies the DVD player performs the digital surround processing before passing the signal via its 6-Channel connections to the E492. I'd like to break out of this cycle and remove the need to use the DVD player for processing. An obvious choice would be to simply buy a full surround amp and use that for all amplification. However to match the Alpha 9 in sterio I'd need alot more cash! Do you think a s/hand Yamaha DSP-E800 is a good enough step-up from the E492 to be worth purchasing? Or would I simply be moving the processing for no audible benefit? Also can you suggest any top-value full surround amps that will run with my Arcam driving the fronts? 1 : Q9450 | 4Gb PC8500 DMX | ASUS P5E-WS Pro | HD2900XT | 2 x 750Gb (RAID1) | Adaptec ASR-2230SLP SCSI | DVDRW | Corsair 650W TX | CM RC-590 | 2x VP171s-2 | HP Ultrium 960 LTO3 | XP SP3 Pro 2 : X2 4200+ | 2Gb PC3200 | ASUS A8N-SLI Premium | 6600GT | SonicFury | 8x 250Gb (2x RAID10) | 3Ware 9650SE-8LPML | DVDRW | Seasonic 700W | CM Stacker 830 | 2x VP171s-2 | XP SP3 Pro 3 : Sm 3100+ | 1Gb PC3200 | ASUS K8N-E Deluxe | 9800 Pro | 4 x 250Gb Maxline III (RAID10) | DVDRW | CDRW | Tagan 530W Easycon | CM ATC-201B-BXT Black Widow | W7 RC W : Dell Precision 690 | Intel X5355 | 4Gb FBDIMM | Quadro FX3450 | 2x 146Gb 15k SAS (RAID1) | DVDRW | DVD | 2x 2007FP | XP SP3 Pro
