    Just got the 1055

    Just got home with it!!!!!!!!! Damn its heavy,attempting set up now
    Got it up and going.My setup is
    Rotel 1055...DUH!!
    RB 1070 130w amp for front channels
    Mordaunt-Short MS 908 front speakers
    M&K THX 750 center
    NAD 512 CD
    Rava sub
    So far I am very happy with it,It is just overall better than the HK 520 was.So far the biggest improvement is in CD playback,with the HK it was pretty bright at times,now it is much warmer.Pro Logic 2 decosing on regular sat channels seems a bit better also.It is a silver one,funny ,this is the first time I picked silver over black when there was a choice.I usually dont like silver equipment,but on Rotel stuff it looks good.Overall I would say so far...the HK to Rotel change was about as big as when I went from the JVC to the HK.

    I hate threads with zero replies -- it just seems rude -- so I'll be the first to congratulate you! As they say in those NFL commercials, you've made the right choice.

          I have mine all calibrated and setup. Remote programmed and comfortable.. and now I wondering what an external amp would add. heh. it just never ends. I wish there were more optical inputs on the back of the receiver though. I guess thats my only complaint. and component ins. I still require a video switcher. oh well.

          I am very happy and won't be adding an amp for at least 6 months. (no where to put it)

          I can tell a huge difference with my new receiver! I just ordered one of those power chords. can it get any better? heheh.
          I'm just sittin here watchin the wheels go round and round...

              1055 First Impressions
              by sikoniko
              This is a post I made on Hometheaterspot.com, hope you enjoy!

              Ok, I bought my yamaha 992 receiver in 1997 when it first was released. I thought this was the greatest receiver and that I would stick w/ yamaha from then on out.

              fast forward to a month ago and I was looking...

              First impressions - RSX-1055
              by kendrid
              I picked up my silver 1055 about 6 hours ago. It dosen't fit inside of my entertainment center (a bit too deep), so I only have some of my system hooked up right now.

              Music, which is what I am most concerned about, sounds wonderful. It is as good as my 2 channel Rotel 970 preamp. The...

              RSX-1055 Vs Marantz SR7300
              by Matiu
              Hi, I'm a first time visitor to Club Rotel and relatively new to Home Theatre. I've put some speakers aside (Monitor Audio Silver 8i's & 10i centre) and I was looking at buying the Marantz SR7200 AV Receiver. Then I heard it was being upgraded to SR7300 (6x110wpc into 8ohms all channels driven,...

              RSX-1055 vs stereo amplifier for music
              by pbone
              I am very much a beginner here although I have had a Rotel 931Mk2 for several years. Two things have happened- one is that the Rotel has gone to another home and the other is that I have finally decided to get into home theatre, although 90% of my system use will still be music- the RSX -1055 seems...
