    HCDC - RSP 1068 and RCD 1072

    I am buying a RCD 1072 and an RSP 1068 pre-amp/processor (plus the RMB 1075). Unlike the RCD 1072 and the RSP 1098 the Rotel website does not reference HCDC with the RSP 1068. What does this mean from a sound standpoint?

    I'm going to be running B&W 803S speakers and most likely the HTM3S center channel. I don't know what the rear speakers will be yet. Any thoughts on the amp and pre-amp with this system?

      You miss-typed, it is HDCD. The RSP1068 seems to support it (check Rotel's website). But you should try using your RCD1072's DACs anyway, so try plugging the CD player in analog (with good cables) and setting the RSP1068 in "direct analog stereo" mode. You can compare this with using a digital coax: then your processor will be doing the digital to analog conversion. I would suspect the RCD1072 being better than the RSP1068 for doing the 44.1kHz D/A conversion.

          RSP 1098/1068 RSX 1067 Wish List V4
          by Aussie Geoff
          Hi,

          As promised, HERE is V4.0 of the "Wish-list" for the Rotel RSP-1098 (Updated Sunday 7 March 2004).

          Some key points:
          • It now incorporates the RSP-1068 and the RSX-1067, with the latest version of firmware for these.
          • It has been updated to reflect the capabilities

          RSP-1066 vs 1068 vs 1069
          by Ted
          I'm considering moving from my RSX-1057 (which I love) to separates this year. I'm wondering if there is a big difference sonically between the RSP-1066, 1068, and 1069?

          HDMI does not sell it for me, so I'm not too concerned if it does or does not have HDMI compatibility. I have Rotel...

          RCD 1070 question/problem
          by rotel&energy
          Has anyone else experienced this w/ the RCD 1070/1072? :

          Every now and then, I'll stick a disc into my 1070 and immediately hit play and when I do that, the CD will start at track 10, instead of 1. This does not happen all the time and it never happens if I give the machine time to read...

          RSP-1068 questions
          by hired goon
          G'day,

          After a long saga trying out an RSP-1068, then an RSP-1066, I finally settled on the RSP-1068 yesterday. I think (hope!) I've made the right choice.

          Anyway, I've got a couple of questions, which I trust someone here can help answer.

          (1) I've got an...

          RSP 1098/1068 and HDTV
          by lsolimine
          Good day. I am ugrading from my RSP-985, due to its lack of component inputs/output and my television only having one component input, in order to take advantage of Comcast adding HDTV in my area. Has anyone had any problems or issues with either the 1098 or 1068 and HDTV? Thank you.
