Re: Digital receiver with AT-type capabilities

 Since there is no way to connect this to a network it would be hard to
interface it with a computer. Unless you can plug a wireless adapter into
the USB port and make it work.

While looking at the NR1000 and it seems like the real deal, I found the MB
S1 http://www.onkyousa.com/model.cfm?class=Digital%20Music&m=MB-S1&p=i
 
Is this an alternative for the AT?  I could not find out if it is
controllable from the computer like the AT which is the feature I enjoy the
most on the AT.  But alas they are not making any more so we have to move
on.
