    RDV-1060 overheating?

    Had a long session with my RDV-1060 and RSX-1056 yesterday. After a few hours of playing CD's I watched a couple of movies. On both discs the RDV-1060 froze at what I'm guessing was the layer change. It then continued a few seconds further into the movie. The player is normally okay so I'm thinking it may be overheating? The player and amp sit in a TV cabinet so are not that well ventilated. There is probaly only 2 or 3 inches clearance above the player and a little less than this either side. The cabinet has a back on so there's not much airflow. I put my hand into the cabinet and the top of the player did feel very warm. I don't normally get much time to use the system for a long period of time so this is the first time it's been run that long. Any thoughts?

    Thanks in advance.

    Take your Rotel equipment out off the cabinet the next time you have the time to enjoy your system for a few hours and see if the problem persists. Some DVDs are not mastered in the best of ways and can result in a noticeable layer change.

      Constrained layer cabinet walls (bathroom tile as constraining layer)
      by xandresen
      I am posting this to document my DIY constrained layer technique for cabinet walls. New cabinet construction is shown here but you could add it to an existing cabinet if the front panel is removable.

      I wanted to try constrained layer construction because the 1.7 cubic foot, 3/4" wall...

      Constrained Layer Damping (CLD)

      Constrained Layer Damping (CLD) is a technique used in loudspeaker design to reduce unwanted vibrations and cabinet resonances that can degrade sound quality. It involves the addition of a damping material between two rigid layers which effectively dampens the vibrations and reduces their transmission. CLD construction typically consists of three layers: a central core layer, an adhesive layer, and two outer layers. The central core layer is usually a...

      Hi Guys,

      I've been reading about different cabinet construction techniques, and I came up with something that might be of interest around here. I'm not the first person to come up with this, but I would like to bring up the idea of ceramic floor tile as a stiffening liner in cabinets....

      Can't play SACD layer of Yellow Brick Road...
      by Kevin P
      Last week I picked up Elton John's "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" on hybrid SACD. I finally got around to playing it at home, on my SACD player, a Sony DVP-S9000ES, and discovered that it will only play the CD layer. I tried both discs, and both are doing the same thing... the player recognizes...
