    RSX-1067 Zone Channels as Sub Amp for Gallo Ref3's?

    I'm having a tough time finding a quality crossover to filter the full range line-level signal from my receiver's pre-outs prior to running them through a separate 2-channel amp (NAD C370) to power the 2nd set of subwoofer voice coils on my Gallo Reference 3's. Guess I'll just have to wait for the Gallo SA to be released.

    In the meantime, would it be possible to loop the RSX-1067's LFE-outs to an unused input on the unit, then select that input for the Zone channels, and then connect the Zone speaker outputs to the terminals for the 2nd subvoofer voice coils of the Ref3's (after setting the Zone channels' output to full-range)? The LFE-out can be set to cross over at 40Hz, which (I've read) is the generally recommended frequency for powering the 2nd set of subwoofer voice coils. Being a newbie, I'm concerned that this setup might cause internal feedback, or worse, some sort of short circuit that will damage the RSX-1067. Has anyone tried this yet?

    Thanks in advance.

    Dual Voice Coil (DVC)

    A dual voice coil (DVC) design is a configuration commonly used in loudspeaker drivers, particularly subwoofers. It involves a speaker driver with two separate voice coils wound on a shared former (the cylindrical structure that holds the voice coils), each connected to its own set of terminals. Each voice coil is wound with its own wire, and they are physically separated but located on the same former. The former is connected to the speaker cone, which moves in

    Overhung Voice Coil

    An overhung voice coil is a type of loudspeaker driver design where the winding height of the voice coil is longer than the height of the magnetic gap in which it operates. In this design, the coil extends beyond the magnetic gap, giving it a longer excursion capability than a standard driver.

    Pros of Overhung Voice Coils:
    • Greater Excursion Capability: Overhung voice coils have a longer excursion range, allowing them to move the speaker cone farther

    Upgrading from B&K AVR307 to RSX1067 worth it?
    by Dmantis
    Ok,
    Let me start out by saying I loved the rsx1065 and the combo of the rsp1066 and rmb1075. I own a B&K avr307 and thinking of coming back to Rotel. The rsx1067 caught my eye as did the rsp1067. Seperates would be the way to go a but the rsx1067 is so good in my opnion that I would consider...

    B&W 804S Vs. Gallo Reference 3's
    by LikeCoiledSteel
    I recently demo'd some B&W 804S's at a local dealer. I am not sure if they were just not fully broken in yet, but they sounded boxed in. Not what I was expecting. Imaging was very good and was pace, they just sounded a bit constrained.

    I am now looking at the Gallo's and will demo...

    rsx1067 vs rsp1068/rb993/rb985mkII
    by JRambo
    Hi, I recently read in a home-theater magazine that the Rotel rsx1067 was their first choice in the heavy-receiver class.. How will this receiver compare to a setup with rsp1068, rb993 and rb985mkII, when it comes to sound quality, as the price for these two setups will be about the same..
