Hi all, Well i finally got my RSP1068 after waiting 3 weeks and guess what?
No sound from the centre speaker or subwoofer outputs.
I have checked, and double checked and triple checked all settings etc, but cannot find the problem.
I switched the Front Left preout with the centre and the centre started to work so it sounds like a defective unit.
The sub gets nothing at all. These speakers worked perfectly about 1 hour before with my Marantz receiver.
Interestingly the preout for the sub and the centre are next to each other on the rear panel, so I guess there could be something come adrift inside.
I have however managed to do some listening in 2 channel before it goes back to the dealer on Monday morning and have found it a definite improvement over my old Marantz Sr 8200 which I used as a pre/pro, however the hiss from the speakers is considerably louder than it was with the Marantz. Noise with the Marantz receiver was almost non existent.
This hiss is only when the cd is paused and the volume raised to very loud levels (no music playing) has anyone else found this? or is this also a possible fault.
One more thing, has any owner of the 1068 found PL II to be a much lower volume than say 5 channel stereo the difference on mine was like about 15db
on the volume knob, which seems a bit too much to be right
Any ideas or comments from 1068 owners?
:cry:
Thanks from a Mr not very happy bleeding ears
