Products: Receivers and Processors: The Model 976
Model 976 7.2 HDMI AV Surround Processor

Focusing on sound and video quality, ease of use, and expanded connectivity, the Model 976 has what the Outlaw customer expects: a true, no compromise, "best in class" product.

The Model 976 offers both balanced and conventional outputs in a 7.2 configuration fed by high quality DACs. The 7.1 analog audio inputs stay analog through and through to maintain signal purity. As was the case with the Model 975, we've included a robust power supply with a compact torroidal transformer.

Between the pure analog 7.1 ch inputs, support for 4K and HDR, the Model 976 allows us to deliver a new, advanced product to those who want the benefits of the latest in HDMI (2017), but who are unable or unwilling to install an 11-channel speaker system.

If you're looking for a 7.2 channel pre-pro that focuses on suberb sound quality, your search ends here!

•Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby Digital decoding; DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High-Resolution Audio and DTS decoding
