Thank You...After doing lots of research on Digital Audio, I found this unit is ultimate. It has count less features. It supports all three surround sound formats as of now, DTS, Dolby and Prologic. The Time allignment feature impressed me very much.

but one thing you would require a interface to control the pxa...that is the RUX-C701 or any compatible alpine HU will be required other wise it is total waste.....also it has 6- inputs 3 analog and 3 optical....so i fear you cannot connect it with the laptop SPDIF ......
Yes this unit is of no use if a compatible HU or control is not in place. I am planning for C701 too. Instead of going with another HU, I will prefer the C701. It is specially designed for this type of DSP units.

I don't think there will be any issue connecting my laptop SPDIF port to this unit. This unit has three Toslink optical connector and my laptop has RCA SPDIF connector. I know I can't directly use the Toslink optical cable between this unit and laptop. But there are many solutions to over come this. One of them is a Toslink to RCA adapter, which can convert RCA signal to Toslink and vice versa without signal loss. There are also Toslink Selectors which cal take input in both the format, RCA and Toslink and output as Toslink and RCA. So anyof them can solve the purpose.

Audio Gurus : Pls guide me, if there is any other and better option which stated above. Your Help is very much appreciated.

Thank You
