    Pop/Hiss Probs - Does it happen when muted?

    Hello fellow Rotelians,

    I have a 1068 / 1095 combo and I've noted some popping sounds from my speakers (mostly from the rear - as they are the closest).

    The sound is more of a muffled static sound. It occurs randomly - maybe once every 5 - 10 mins.

    I've noticed it on both my SAT 5100 PVR and my Xbox (most used sources).

    It does not coincide with any source changes or pausing or volume control or power spikes (ie: fridge turning on).

    Here's the kicker - It occurs whether the 1068 is muted or not.

    My question is if anyone else is noticing these Pop/Hiss issues as well when they're preamp / receiver is muted?

    FYI - My 1068 and 1095 each have their own dedicated 20 amp circuit seperate from the rest of the system. I'm not using any type of filtering or surge protection. I'm running the latest 1.2.1 software (problem was always there - regardless of which s/w version used).

    thx. -gh

    Sounds like you have one with the solder problem. Call your dealer and have a new one sent out.

      1066 question re: hiss and pop
      by Chris
      Finally just finished my HT upgrade (for this month anyway), and I've got the 1066 now w/ the 195 amp and Paradigm Reference all around. Much to my dismay though, I am experiencing the popping sound from my speakers that was mentioned a little bit below. It happens whenever I change any of the settings...

      Yet another question about RSX-1067 hiss/pop
      by rotelnyc2
      Hey all!

      I'm a first time Rotel owner, been eyeing the RSX since the introduction of the 1065. First off, I did find a good amount of info on the hiss/pop issue amongst the threads, but didn't find much info on my questions and issues specifically so I decided to start a new thread,...

      by madmac
      Hey all,

      Recently I've been getting a loud popping noise out of all speakers from my Rotel receiver and then there is no sound from any source. If I turn it off and then on again, it operates normally for a bit, pops again and then no sound. I cleaned, spliced and reconnected all patch...

      Soft (and loud!) hiss from your speakers with C1/A51?
      by netarc
      I'm trying to troubleshoot a *hiiisss* emanating from the speakers when the C1 and A51 are connected and powered up. At a steady state (no inputs playing), the hiss is actually quite loud ... one can hear it from all 5x speakers quite clearly, even from a distance of 10'!

      Tried toggling...
