All I want, from any manufacturerer, is a single ended preamp with a remote and bass management for two subwoofer outputs. It would be awesome if this could come in under 500 bucks, as the Emotiva XSP-1 is $1000, and that offers all of this and more with balanced connections. I just want single ended, with a couple slopes and at least 40,60,80,100,120 Hz selectable crossovers, and if not that, a dial. I think with their love of LED lights, they could make the selectable crossovers and slopes just light up across the front panel. You'd have a button for crossover, one for slope, and one for input, and two volume buttons. Maybe the volume would be a giant row of LED's on top, and then the buttons in the middle, and the input/crosssover lights on bottom Just two, maybe three inputs would be enough. I don't even care if the remote turns the thing on and off, hell, leave the power switch on the back, I just want volume on it. I'll even get up to change the input, but for the love of all that is good, a remote controlled preamp would rarely stay in stock. You'd have old farts buying them in droves, finally relaxing their knees.
You could even have an Uber version with a Mani built in, and a Super Uber with a Mani, Wyrd, and Bifrost built in, in a big ol' Ragnarok chassis or something. Yeah!
