    Rotel rsp 1068 vs 1098 in analog bypass

    Hi!
    I could use some help.I'd like to buy the Rotel rsp 1068,but I'm not sure if the,analog bypass (5.1) is as good as the 1098.Is there anyone who would be able to help me? Did anybody compare one to the other.Probably they are the same inside in that department.Sorry about my English,I'm still working on it.
    Thanks,Tibor

    Good question yba, I am curious to see the responses. I have the 1068 and find it to be an excellent 2 channel pre. It is dead quiet, covers the full frequency range, is essentially a volume control, so, who could ask for more.

      I have the 1068 and run the analog bypass exclusivley when I listen to music. Soundhoud is right on, no coloration of the signal. Seems the source equipment might make biggest difference over the two pre/pros.

            Hi Guys!
            I'm so happy today,because I received my Rotel rsp 1068.What can I say.I did not hear everything out there,but this piece is rocks.I really like all kind of music and the 1068 going to serve me well for so long.The 5.1 bypass is awsome and dead quiet as well as was my Classe ssp 30mk2.I do not have the Classe for side by side comparison,but I did not miss anything,so far fropm it.The DTS is just perfect,and I do not miss the atmosphere of the movie at all.If you listen dance music also,and you not shy to admit,try the 5stereo mode and you going to be shocked.So cool!!!!!!!!!My system is ready for a while:-)In a mean time Tony Bennett singing with Natali Cole.I'd like to cry.They so real,from SACD of course.....:-)
            You should buy this SACD as well.Title:Tony Bennett featuring duets with.....!
            I just can't get enough:-)
            Have a nice day and have a nice listening for all of you tonight and more...!:-)
            OH;no hiss,no humm,not at all.By it with confidence.It is going to need a good company of course ,but I do not think that is a problem for any of us!

                1068 via analog
                by PSUfan
                Alright, this topic seems to be discussed too often but the upgrade bug is upon me.....I have the pioneer elite 23fd blu-ray connected to my 1068 via analog. In this situation the pioneer handles all the decoding and my 1068 is set to multi-input making it a large volume knob. The sound is excellent...

                Result from firmware upgrade on RSP-1068
                by metallo
                I often follow the rule "Don't fix what ain't broken" and i really didn't have any reason for upgrading the firmware for my RSP-1068, everything worked fine, I think it was version 1.1.9.

                I never has been pleased with the stereo performance except in "analog bypass"....

                RSP 1068, analog or digital in stereo mode?
                by bleeding ears
                Hi guys, after reading the technical section notes under FAQ on the rotel site, it states the rsp 1066 in stereo mode is analog apart from the subwoofer signal.

                My question is, is the 1068 also analog in stereo mode ?

                The reason I'm thinking it may be different to the...

                No true analog bypass on RSP-1066???
                by Martinf
                Prior to committing to a multi-channel pre-amp (RSP-1066), I’ve been studying the specifications and user manuals for both the Rotel RSP-1066 and very new RSP-1098.

                1. Some observations from RSP-1098 manual:-

                (a) On page 13 in the RSP-1098 manual it has an explicit...

                Question about Analog Bypass on RSP-1098
                by vsarathy
                All,
                I have been thinking of getting the Rotel 1072 CD player. As it has very good DACs on board, I intend to connect to my RSP-1098 controller with analog cables.

                There is a section in the manual that says that all analog inputs are upconverted to digital signals. It seems to...
