    1098 clicking when changing sat. channels

    Hi everyone. I need your help on my 1098. When i am watching satellite (zenith dtv-1080) and i go to change the channel the pre amp clicks. Is there any way to get it to stop? Other than that though what an awesome piece of equipment.

    It's prefectly normal for the 1098 to "click" when changing channels on your TV tuner. Rotel's engineers wanted the purist audio signal possible so they chose not to interject muting circuitry in the audio signal path. Your 1098 is losing the signal then re-aquiring it so then it has to figure out if it's mono, stereo, Dolby ProLogic, DD, DTS, etc., etc.. That's the clicking sound you hear. Other receivers and pre/pros do this as well. The Denon 3803 I owned prior to the 1098 clicked as well.

        RSP-1098 and RMB-1095 questions
        by thunderstorm77
        Good morning!

        I finally got my RSP-1098 and RMB-1095, I must say I couldn't be more satisfied. A huge step up in sound quality, especially stereo, which is awesome considering it's a surround system. I use a high-end HTPC for all audio and video sources, and use the TV-out on the graphics...

        Is this normal, RSP-1098 "Clicking"? and Break in period.
        by eulogytool
        I broke down and and bought the 1098 after months of debating and I am very happy.

        First question is: What is the normal break in period for a Pre/Amp to reach it's full dynamic potential?

        Second question: I have my gear loaded onto one circuit and when my refrigerator...

        I have a new 1098 with both DVD and Scientific Atlanta cable box connected with Comp cables and using video switching. Time Warner Cable suggested setting cable box for 1080i output only and when the 1098 was set for progressive output I got horizontal lines and distortion at the top of the screen,...
