Calling all Proceed AVP 2 owners..please advise

Rsuminsby thanks for your response to my enquiry on an earlier thread....I only now came across it and I thankyou for your observations...I wonder if this same bug has affected all the upgrades...I noticed another thread earlier with a guy complaining of problems with dd and dts ...sounds like you are very dubious of the north american sales director on the earlier thread who promised that software updates to the ml would be available to the avp 2? cheers

Thanks joemt as well for your thoughts....can I ask you both whether you noticed more bass with the avp2..Ive felt that the avp is a little bass shy...although at least in digital mode I have wondered whether it may be a malady connected to my Pioneer Elite 47a which compared to my old Toshiba really has not impressed me

The "quality" of the bass has increased in the
jump from AVP to AVP2 in my case. I never felt the
AVP really lacked in bass. The new setup produces
a tighter bass response in my opinion. I've yet to
reach my final configuration, did I say final?
I still want to get my vandersteen subs integrated
in. I had them hooked up in a single config, but want
to move to the Number 5 crossover, balanced. Then
everything will be adjustable. Thin sounding cd's,
no problem, add some gain on the sub. Heavy miked
cd's on acoustic bass, turn 'em down a bit.
Can't wait.....

If you still want input, here goes... I had an all Proceed system, including paying $3000 for the AVP2 upgrade. After I got word that Proceed was being discontinued (yeah, still there, but "new" Levinson)I got upset and sold my AVP2 and PMDT transport. I suffered through Proceed's learning curve, but when the stuff worked properly it was a great performer. Now I have the new Lexicon gear and I love it. Contact me for more info on that stuff. Good luck.

I am in same boat. I have avp2&pmdt thinking about lexicon maybe trade in deal with lexicon. talked to them&they said proceed was a dead issue. avp&hpas not into ml line. having problem now with pmdt they said problably would not be able to fix it,they wont be doing any more software up dates on any proceed stuff or fix any so called glitches on software.so iam a little leary with same company.what kind of lexicon stuff have and how does it sound to proceed.
