FS: Sunfire Grand Theater Processor 1 - Asking $400

Great condition,  includes copy of manual and original remote. Canonsburg area.

Some verbiage from the web about it:

Introduction
Along with both Dolby Digital and DTS decoders, the Theater Grand from Sunfire is the only high-end digital processor/preamp I've reviewed with a 40 preset AM/FM Tuner and phono stage. When you consider that the Sunfire offers many more features than many heralded (and ultra-expensive) processors, it may surprise you that its price tag is well below the competition at $2,995. Proof that it doesn't require a second mortgage (just a good credit line) to have a terrific sound system.

Interfacing Details
When it comes to I/O connections, the Theater Grand is extremely well equipped. There is a total of five digital inputs (5 coax, 2 Toslink) and nine analog audio inputs (including the five grouped with composite and S-video connectors). There are two pairs of component inputs and a single set of component outputs. This is smart. If you have both a DVD and a DSS, you'll need a switcher, since most TVs equipped with component inputs only have one set of connectors.

Balanced outputs (as well as single-ended) are provided for all six channels, not just the mains. The Theater Grand also offers an unprecedented option of three subwoofer outputs (all singled-ended) for incorporating multiple subs in a home theater setting. Connections are provided for external processors such as an EQ, and the RS-232 port facilitates the use of sophisticated controllers like Crestron and AMX. Two extra speakers can be added for an effect Sunfire calls Seven Axis, which derives a surround effect from the front channel signal, for a greater sense of envelopment.

Sometimes low-tech solutions are still the best. Are you using center, sub and surround speakers? Just flip the rear panel toggle switches to engage the speakers present in your system. It's that simple. There is no complex on-screen menu to configure speakers. In fact, there are no on-screen provisions at all; settings are displayed on the front panel's large LCD window.

Packed with an intelligent touch screen remote, you can program all your existing remotes into this compact controller.

I wish I had the cash.   

My last purchase from you is still going strong with hours of daily use.
