My rsx1056 only has the 1.1.4 firmware.Do i or should i leave it as it is.If i upgrade to whatever firmware is available how would it benefit me.Just so everyone knows i dont get any HISSING or SNAPPING from my spkrs on the rsx1056 as others have said that they do.Would appreciate the advice.

Since it costs nothing to upgrade I'd suggest you consider upgrading it. The newer code does give you some nice new features and is easy to do. -
what are the features if i may ask?i really cant make heads or tails using the rotel site.Also since i dont have any of these hiss or snap problems would it still be a wise choice?Comment

Here's a list of the changes that were made since 1.1.4. Most of them aren't that important for most people but remembering the last used surround mode is nice and the progressive bug was a common complaint.
V1.1.4 to V1.1.5
- Adjusted the output levels in Dolby 3 Stereo mode
V1.1.5 to V1.1.7
- Corrected a discrepancy between the front display and the OSD when
displaying the Dolby Digital 2CH mode.
- Corrected the Dolby Digital EX flag indication when using RS232.
- Changed the default surround mode method to remember the last used
surround mode by disc type - i.e. separate default modes now available for
Dolby Digital and DTS. The exceptions to this are auto-detected surround
modes such as DD EX and DTS ES discs.
- Corrected a bug causing no progressive video passthrough on initial powerup
when OSD is set to off.Comment

Hello,
I just purchased a new RSX-1067 (first Rotel purchase woo-hoo!) from my local dealer, and I was hoping one of the Rotel experts here could answer a question for me. According to Rotel's website, the most current firmware update is listed as 1.1.7 (for the RSX1056, RSX 1067, and... -
I always thought that the rsx1056 should not be used with 4ohm speakers.Atleast that's what rotel told me a while back when i was inquiring about dynaudio speakers,so i ended up with B&W 603s3's/lcr600(really liked them anyway).Well i have upgraded my speakers to a System Audio setup(sa1750/sa720av/sa505's)these...

Is the better choice the RSP1068 or RSX1056 for pre-amp duty?
I will add the RMB1066 (in bi-amp mode) or the RMB1075.
I am upgrading from a denon1804 to drive B&W700series in 5channels only (no sub yet)
Being budget limited, choosing the RSX1056 allows me to...
