    Would the RSP1068 also make a good 2 channel preamp?

    I am a 50% music and 50% movie person with my system and in need of a prepro. For 2 channel music, how is the RSP1068? Not really into buying two preamps.

    How does the RSP1068 compare with the RSP1056 for 2 Channel music?

    If you're looking for a preamp that does 2ch and HT for $1700 or less, I don't think the 1068 can be beat.

    Will be similar to 1056 for 2 channel, although matched with a good amp and interconnects, will outperform it.
    Will be slightly better than 1066.

        If you have the 1095, then go for the 1068 .

          I demo'ed one and if I could have purchased it for $1500 usd I would now own it instead of the RSX-1055/RC-1070 (2 pre) combo. I found it to deal with 2 channel quite well :T

              Anyone use a preamp with 1066 for 2 channel sound??
              by Akprimroses
              Greetings Folks,

              I have narrowed my power choices down to three.

              1. Rotel 1066/1075 combo
              2. Musical Fidelity A300 integrated with a Rotel 1055 for HT use.
              3. McCormack DNA-1 and TLC-1 seperates.

              I will use the system 75% 2 channel stereo music,...

              How does your pre/pro stack up for two channel?
              by Burke Strickland
              Some pre/pros that are highly regarded for the quality of their presentation on HT surround modes (DTS, DD 5.1, et al) are not considered truly appropriate for "audiophile" two channel music playback, especially those lacking an analog pass-through. Others have DACs that are easily surpassed...

              Two channel preamp- Cambridge 840e
              by JonMarsh
              I don't post that often over on this side of the 'Guide, normally keeping myself safely confined to the DIY pages.


              But now and then I run across something that might deserve wider comment and recognition, and this is such a case.

              I've been planning on getting...

              2-channel preamp with Halo
              by Jeff Mayer
              Hi all,

              I am looking for a great sounding preamp to go with a Parasound A51. Just care about 2-channel as I have a receiver for everything else. Anyone have any experience with Bel Canto Design PRe2? any other ideas?
              I don't feel the P-3 would be a big enough upgrade. Price...

              Using 2 Krell multi-channel amps as monoblocks?
              by ShadowZA
              I just thought of something regarding 2 channel critical music-listening only. Don't know why I didn't think of it before.

              I have 2 Krell KAV amps. One 3 channel & one 2 channel. Each amp has a 2000VA power supply. At the mo' I have LF, centre & RF on one amp & SL & SR...
