I have had this for about 18 months. It is in perfect working condition with no blemishes that I can see. I have the remote (both) the microphone and all the original paperwork but not the original boxes. It has the 4.1 firmware (the latest before SNAP) $650 shipped.

Darla - you can run your HT in an apt! I have been doing it for several years. If you want some tips on how to set it up and have it listenable, and neighbor friendly send me a pm. Doug.

I know I havent been here long, and dont know many of you very well, but this just seems really sad.

Its depressing to see someone giving up something they enjoy so much. Keep what you can wingnut, good luck to you.

Thank guys. I am keeping the stuff that is REAllY expensive..the speakers ,amps etc. I want to upgrade my pre eventually anyway so better to let someone else enjoy it than have it sit. I appreciate the kind words.

Great price on a great HT PrePro. You will spend hundreds more anywhere else.

How many other companies offer upgrades and additions like this at this price point instead of making you just buy a new box? They're like the Polk Audio of digital components.

I'm sorry,but I can't tell from the link if the unit is Silver or Black,almost looks Silver in the picture...and also,can't find any specs on dimentions,how tall is the pre?

Thanks for your trouble,Mike

It's silver and you are right. I do not see the dimensions. I think it's 8 inches? But I will have to measure it.

17-3/8" x 7-3/4" x 17-3/4" and 26.5# it is a beast.

I have the Sherwood pre-pro, never could get the up-grade to work! I not very good with computers, I wonder if Sherwood can send me a cd rom to up-grade that way.

It is actually not really silver per se. It has more of a brushed nickel or bronzy look. I am not sure how to describe it. The unit does best a lot of higher priced processors when it comes to 2 channel, if one use pre pros for 2channel.

Good luck Darla,
Mike
