First want to say hi to everybody as this if my first post here. IMO there is nothing as competent on Rotel as Club Rotel. Just recently I became a proud owner of Rotel 1068/1075 combo. They DO sound really well. I still expect some sound improvement after burning-in. I upgraded from Yamaha 1500 amp + DVD mainly following discussions on this forum. I got my Rotels hooked with Marantz DV9600 via coaxial cable through "digital input video 1" input and via analog through "video in 1" input. When I play a DVD and switch (on the input setup menu) from coax1 to, say, optical1 or coax2 there is still a sound coming though only coax1 and analog inputs are engaged. Could you comment on that, pls.

The unit will default to analog anytime it does not detect a digital signal on the chosen digital input. So even though you only have coax 1 and analog plugged in, choosing coax 2 with nothing playing on coax 2 will default it back to analog.
The only reason for the 'analog' choice is to force it to always play the analog input.

Kevin, thanks. There is a significant change of sound character (read: improvement) on switching from coax to analog, by the way.Comment

Last night I noticed that there was something wrong with my Music Server, which is connected via Digital Coax to the #1 Digital Input on the Halo. The Music was modulating and dropping out the vocals and jumping from speaker to speaker, almost like the DSP steering was out of control. Sometimes there... -
Hi folks,
Has anyone heard of a problem with Parasound Halo C2's not producing sound from the right surround channel? This only happens when I try and listen to SACD's via the 6 channel analog inputs. All digital inputs work fine. There is some low level sound from the right surround... -
Hi all,
Maybe a silly question.
My cd player is hooked up both by analog cables and an optical cable to my RSP 1068. When I go to the input menu for Listen:CD I set it to Optical 2. Ok, I then go and play a cd. When I'm in PCM 2 CH mode I cannot choose Bypass or stereo... -
I plan to connect a CD player from Marantz CD 6003 to the RSP 1069 which is connected to a power amp RMB 1077.
The Specs for the CD 6003 output is listed below.
Would like to know if there is any issue of impedance mismatch with input expectations to the Analong input and the Coaxial... -
Hey Guys-
I have a JVC HM-DH30000H D-VHS VCR on Video 4 connected via component video 4, optical audio 2, and the analog audio/video 4 inputs. Everything works as expected when playing D-Theater HDTV video tapes (except for no video on the 1098 screen). The JVC will not pass an analog...
