    1066/1098 audio click

    In reference to an earlier post, I have read nothing about any audible pops or clicks thru the speakers when detecting a DD bitstream with the 1066, but I have with the 1098. I have a Ref. 50 and am thinking of trading it in. Only pops annoyingly when detecting a DD signal on my Tivo and sometimes drops out the sound all together and I have to change channels and go back. The internal contacts are very noisey compared to the Rotels. Any truth to this? Help me make the right choice.

    The Rotels also use mechanical switches which sound better then electronic but make a click sound when engaging. As for pops I very rarely hear any with my 1098 but now that the humidity has dropped I do hear the odd one every now and then...though its quite rare.

      Upgrading;Differences 1066/1068/1098
      by rosros
      The Rotel web site is updated to include the 1066 replacement, the 1068. They also have the 1068 manual online. Having both 1098 and 1066 inhouse (wished the 1068 was here), I compared features, sound and the manuals for the 1098 to the 1068 to the 1066; here are the differences: Note I own the 1066...

      RSP 1098 to 1066 Comparison?
      by Aussie Geoff
      Hi, as part of my "lets convince myself to buy a 1098 instead of a 1066" process, I (and I'm sure many other readers of this forum) would really like some real world feedback from people who have compared the sound of the two pre-pros.

      My first look at the RSP-1098 and a look back
      by xavierzx11
      I have had my 1098 for about a week now, but because of my family (3 young kids) and my job I have only had about 4 hours of real setup and listening time, so this is not meant of be an indepth review. But before I get started on the 1098 I would like you know a little about where I came from so you...
