Post Arcam AV Receiver

Has anyone heard the new Arcam Diva AV receiver yet? Any opinions on sound quality? Could this be a receiver that actually sounds good in two channel mode too?

Unhappy

We have one on demo in our AV demo room.

The AVR 100 is a bit disappointing in surround modes, it doesn't quite have the HC kick that you really want. Don't know about stereo because I haven't used it for that yet. For the money I would prefer a Denon AVR 3801, but if it's stereo you want you may like to try it.
