I have a 1056 that in 2ch mode I can hear signal noise from center and surround speakers,a hissing.I understand on the 2 front speakers you would hear signal noise since they are getting a signal but one would think in 2ch mode center and surrounds would be muted.The question is does the 1067or even the 1068 also do this in 2ch mode?When I set at my desk and listen to 2ch(front speakers about 18ft away) I am about 3ft from my surrounds and this hissing is very disturbing.If you would just push 2 ch button,listen to center and tell me you hear nothing or something,any help would be appreciated,thanks.

That's a tough one Bob. Could be tons of things. RF interference in your interconnects, speaker wires or electrical. Could be you got a bad unit, which rare as it is and annoying, is always possible. It doesn't sound like the common ground loop hum....
My best advice is to start off by trying a different 2-channel source. If you have a CD player and DVD player try listening to the analog and digital inputs of both (as is possible) and see if you're still getting the same noise from the other channels. Then if that doesn't work try disconnecting everything but one source at a time to narrow down the culprit. If there's still no luck then I'd say take it back to your dealer and see if you can re-create the problem at their shop. Unless someone else has a better idea?

Hey guys!
My 1056 in coming in Wednesday....you are scaring the living gageenas out of me...2 channel mode was one of the biggest reasons I bought the 1056 8O
Man oh man.....however from what I read this is not a very common problem....or...is it...Since it is such a new receiver maybe there are not that many people who own them quite yet.... :?
I`m bummed....

Bam, don't worry until/umless you have something to worry about.
Bob, sounds like your dealer should order a new unit for ya from Rotel and perhaps contact them so he can find out why his is doing it too. Keep us posted
