1. Audyssey audio processing (which would probably make a nice difference in the SQ and balance that has been self calibrated).
2. The PCM, DTSHD, TrueHD, etc via HDMI.
My hesitation is simple: Would these improvements be worth the cost of a $1200 admission ticket when compared to the SQ I have now. At this point I'm not sure enough to go through the trouble and the feedback I've received has been mixed so I think I'll hold off for now.
