Actually, I just let my 707A scan when I'm listening and that works for me
better then duel receive, I don't know about you but when I'm talking to
some one the last thing I need is some one talking on the other side of what
I'm trying to listen to, makes it very hard. I know some people that can
deal with it though. I see the 708 listed in the AES web site but I don't
see anything else about it anywhere to see what it is or anything. Might be
a little pricy though but I'm sure it will come down.
