Will be here in a few weeks--PSA is still back-ordered from their end-of-year sale.
I'll be keeping one known-excellent-sounding Butler '5150* (to biamp the CC and drive a pair of surround/ceiling speakers) and the Outlaw 7100 for all-other surrounds/ceilings. That'll leave four poweramps with 16 channels driving the current 14 channels/sections of speakers.
* The other Butler will be sent to Butler for checking/repairing/refreshing before selling it.
