    Replaces select 2 Premier plus DD closes the gap. That’s the thinking. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Sounds interesting. I may have to perform another A/B in my system to see if it surpasses the Select. The way it shows up on the MSB site it "appears" to fall between the Select and Premier.

    I know this is hard to comprehend, but it’s new tech and far exceeds the Select II with the digital director today. Price? Less expensive by nearly 50% of that previous combo. $95k MSRP. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
