    RTC-965, RSP-985, and parts....

    I'm a LTLFTP (long time lurker, first time poster). I just replaced my old RTC-965 with a RSP-985 (sorry but that's all I could afford). Is it me or did I just make a quantum leap in sound quality for both 2ch and 5.1 (using DTS/THX)???

    Second question. I literally BROKE the main circuit board in my RTC-965... Anyone else with one that we can combine and make one working one out of? Is there a market for a broken RTC-965...?

    Thanks in advance for being kind (hint hint)...

    BTW, using exact same setup just different pre/pro. My amp is the RB-985mkII. Pioneer DV563A CD/DVD player (yes, budget again).

    The RSP-985 is still a great unit if you don't have a 7.1 system. It's more on par with the 1098 then the 1066/1068's...

    Not sure what a broke (or even repaired) RTC-965 would be worth. I know it wasn't worth it for you to fix it...

      Help in setting Speaker dimension on RSP985
      by htmad
      I am new to the Rotel world, I have recently bought a RSP985, accompanied by what in my opinion is a very poor manual. Everything is still to be connected together (I am waiting for a HT room to be made available), so I didn't go yet through the ultimate step: try and hear...

      Marantz AV560U to Rotel RSP985. Is the side step worth it
      by ht_addict
      Currently I have the Marantz AV560U pre/pro but have the oportunity to get a Rotel RSP985(for $800CDN) if I can sell my pre. Would it be worth it even though I'm going from one DD/DTS pre to another. Figure it would cost me $100-200 out of pocket if I sell mine(Checkout out Pawnshop for ad). Would love...

      Broke something
      by migliore
      When watching U571, the bass levels got so loud that the clock fell off the wall in the kitchen, landed on a candle and broke it (cracked the candle). I think it was kinda cool, even though my girlfriend was a little pissed. I guess those stupid candles are expensive! Anyway, another recommendation...
