After I finished watching a movie I forgot to shut off the stereo system and TV. I went out of the house for about 2 hours. When I came back I decided to watch another movie. As I walked up to the RMB-1095, I noticed all 5 of the protection circuit lights on the front panel were on and were staying on. I turned the AMP off and then right back on right away. No more circuit lights! I immediatly inserted a DVD and watched X-MEN 2 with no problems since then. What were the possible reasons for the lights to come on and stay on while I was away?

1. Where is the amp housed? Maybe not enough room to breath?
2. Any cats in the house that may get in the back area of HT?
3. Loose wire in speaker cables causing short?
4. Possible power spike while away?
5. Faulty amp?
The amp does consume 190w when Idle if not using the 12v trigger. If you have it housed in a tight area it maybe over heating. Need atleast 4' on all sides.

Thanks.
I am in Tucson, AZ and the power spikes are horrific here. So that might be it.
I have no cats and the unit is not housed in a closed it case.
I will check for loose speak wire as well.
Thanks for the advice.
PS, no hum as of yet..just wonderful music and theaterComment

I just bought the 1075, i'm using it w/12 volt trigger and when I turned it off through my receiver, I noticed that all the protection lights when up. is this normal? I didn't look at the front panel when I first turned it on as I was still hooking things up in the back.

When the sound goes off and the little red lights come on on the face of the RMB 1095, what does that mean exactly??
I have had this happen to me twice already, I was listening at low levels and I went to turn on my ceiling fan, just pulled the chain and all but the center channel went... -
I just got my 1080 back today after an extended stay at the Rotel hospital. It seems to work great. One thing scares me though, when I power it up the red protection light stays on for about 15 to 20 seconds. I swapped speakers and cables with a pair of bookshelves just to be sure it wasn't anything... -
My father was using an Adcom GFA 7000. He wanted to connect a sixth speaker to the 5 channel amp and thought he would try some crafty wiring. He took the speaker cable from the sixth speaker and split it four ways, connecting a pair to both left surround and right surround channels (thinking he would... -
I've just assembled a system, consisting of using a denon 3805, running preouts to an rb1090 and a rmb1095 ( unbalanced).
I am only getting weak sound out of the main right and left front but nothing out of the other five speakers which are connected to the Rmb1095.
