1K Club - QQ Shooting Star
...the price would be $395 + $100 (SQ development payback charge) - $50 (QQ discount) + $18 = $463
Thanks Chucky, that sounds like a good deal.

Question: Is this and the "Involve" processor the same thing?
Also which one of the folks involved with either of these is going on the net insulting upmixers in order to promote these products? Go promote your decoder on its own merits. Show some class and leave people who previously have shown you nothing but respect and stayed completely out of your way to do what they wish.
As one of the few people around these parts that has actually used both the Surround Master and SPEC, I can say with some authority that these are two different beasts. Aside from the fact that the Surround Master is "hardware" and SPEC is software, the Surround Master is a single box solution with a fixed output. You get what the box gives you, which, IMHO, is pretty damn good.
SPEC is total control. You have an incredible amount of flexibility and choices as to what you get as an end result.
The results from both 'systems' is impressive, and also subject to what you put in it. Here's the thing, though. YES, you can get bad results from SPEC, but another person, using the same source, could get great results from SPEC. It's a matter of how the process is used and adjusted. Like I said, there are many ways to set the thing up because of the many choices the user has. In many cases, a skilled user can get something quite good whereas someone else might give up because of poor results.
With the Surround Master, everyone gets the same results.
So, to disparage one method over the other is foolish, in that while they both create surround from stereo, they are two different beasts. And someone may prefer one over the other for whatever reason they may have, but you really can't compare the two as it's not apples to apples.
Why anyone would put down either of these methods who is a surround music fan is beyond me. People who download music for free, then proceed to trash the folks that provide it are just the type of people who ruin open forums and internet communications vehicles. One can get very self-important when hiding behind a username and computer screen, totally free from recourse.
Dear All
I love a good challenge!
Spoke to our commercial types and they are looking at a way to facilitate this on our web site purchase page without causing confusion to non QQ persons (you know - average Joe types). Still waiting.....
One point is that the price would be $395 + $100 (SQ development payback charge) - $50 (QQ discount) + $18 = $463

Hi Chucky -
Any word yet on the pricing issue? I am holding off from ordering until I know what all of the options are - in addition, you mentioned that the discounted pricing expires in less than two weeks; is that still the case?
Thanks -
Hi Sfactor23.
Please remind me if I have forgotten anything but as far as I am aware the price for the SQ version is $465 as quoted with the discount that will expire in 2 weeks.
Nice to hear from somebody - things have gone quiet on this forum!!!!

Chucky

I think what he wants to know is if there is any way yet to order the SQ version now, before the discount expires, and have it ship once SQ version made. Like we were talking about earlier. You were going to speak with your marketing peeps Charlie.
Also my tax refund check will be on the way soon. Money for the QS/SQ version of the surround master will be set aside. :banana:
And yeah, the Surround Master threads have been pretty quiet. I guess no news is good news? How is development of SQ coming? Is it still on schedule for March or April? Don't take this as rushing. Don't rush. I want SQ to be as perfect as the QS
