    Bypassing internal amps on RSX-1056

    Hey guys I have a question for ya...! I'm running the RSX-1056 and had a party recently where one of my buddies brought a PA system...an outdoor party I should add. He had some RCA or XLR inputs on his system and of course the RSX-1056 has the RCA pre-outs which I utilized to feed into his board and use his amp...so my question is how do I turn off my internal FL and FR amps so I'm not rocking the house with my main speakers while we party outside?


    I'm also planning on adding the RB-1080 soon...so what are you guys doing with the internal amps on the 1056? I know they can be redirected to zone 2 and I'll do that eventually...but is it ok to use the pre-outs without speakers attached (therefore providing an infinite ohm load impedance to the internal amps)? I've read the manual and have been lurking here for a while but I'm still not clear on this. Thanks in advance for your advice... Ags :roll:

      Yes if you're using an external amp you don't have to worry about turning off the internal amps...they'll be fine sitting idle. For your party situation I'd connect the PA amp to the zone two pre outs if you don't want it also playing in your main zone.

              Any Way To Have 1055 Internal Amps Power Second Zone?
              by gostan
              Two days with mynew rsx-1055 and I have several questions. I do need a second amp to power my zone 2. I would like more power on the main channels. Since I have to purchase a second amp for zone 2 and since I got such a great deal on the 1055 (3 months old - traded to my dealer) I was wondering why...

              First and foremost, thanks to all for helping me in my decisions. I'll be posting pics soon of my very modest Rotel / B&W setup

              RSP 1570 Zone Config Question
              by chanlon
              Hi there.

              I have a Rotel 1075 5-CH amp connected to Zone 2 and 3 analog outputs of the RSP 1570 to power zones throughout my home. I'm using a 1077 for my main listening room.

              I have #2 12 Volt Trigger Output connected to the 1075.

              The problem I'm having...

              RSX 1067 Zone 2 & speaker cross-over settings
              by Robo1067
              Greetings once again.
              I have just been wondering about the signal being sent to my 'zone 2' speakers.

              Currently I am using a separate power amp for the 7 channels in the lounge theater and have the speakers set to small and the cross-overs set at say 80hz. I am obviously using...
