    Upgrade to RSP 1068

    I have acquired an ARCAM AVP700. For my taste it sounds too laid back.There is just no drive and exitement and attack in the performance. I am considering to change to the RSP-1068 from Arcam, as I was very happy with all the Rotel products I had so far (mainly preamps and poweramps, currently RMB-1075),

    Will I go the right way with the RSP-1068? Is it possible to bi-amp (for example dedicate the unused pre-outs as 3rd and 4th front pre-amp, which is how I run the AVP700 currently.

      Not sure if I understand correctly, are you wanting to use the 1068 as a stereo preamp and use the unused rear/center rear outputs as additional front preouts? If so, no. You cannot reroute signals to different pre-outs.

      If you are going to eventually go with surround sound, the 1068's bypass mode is really nice for stereo and a good unit for surround. IF you are sticking with stereo, I would look for a stereo only preamp.

          2ch sound concerns on 1068
          by grit
          I'm running a Rotel RDV-1060 DVD to a Rotel RSP-1068 powered by a Rotel RMB-1075 playing on B&W 703s (fronts), 705s (rear), HTM7 (center), and ASW700 sub. The DVD player is connected by both analog RCA cables as well as digital coax.

          When I listen to music, I select 2-channel bypass...

          Going to Audition the AVP700 next weekend - Audition Results vs AV Receiver
          by dtb300
          Background:
          I was thinking about the Arcam AVR350 vs the Arcam AVP700 as a replacement for my Yamaha RX-V1400. My primary concern is for music, specifically MCH SACD playback, but the family also watches movies in HT so I do need some video processing and digital input for DVD's. All my speakers...

          RSP-1068 standby mode & optical input glitches
          by rofafor
          I upgraded my hifi gears to Rotels in June. The RSP-1068 was an obvious choice and tested it with RMB-1075 amp too. However the RMB-1075 and my speaker setup (Amphion Argon 2) didn't bring the same feel of sensation as Genelec active speakers, so my RSP-1068 is now connected to a nice set of Genelec...

          1068 Bypass mode - speaker level to subwoofer
          by howburger
          I've got the 1068/1095 combo and I'm building a stereo pair of Dipole subs with 8 Atlas 15's. I've just recently discovered the sound quality of the bypass mode listening to CD's. Problem is, I really would like to utilize my new Dipole Subs while using bypass mode. Would it work if I used a Y splitter...

          1068 PreOuts?
          by SpOoNmAn
          I was looking at the back panel of the 1068, and noticed for Preouts, it has C1 and C2. I know these are for the center channels, but does the preout for C2 have a signal present, the same one as the C1? If so, I'd like to do some experimenting Does the same go for the Sub 2 preout?
