    comparison RC 1070/RSX 1056

    Hello,

    Is there anyone who can tell me about the difference about the RC 1070 an the pre-amp stage of the RSX 1056?
    I find myself watching no movies at all lately, and listen in 2 ch. most of the time. I can sell my RSX 1056, and for that I can buy a RC 1070 and a RCD 1072. There has to be an improvement in 2 ch. listening for me.
    Also I save some space in the house getting rid of my center and surrounds, but that's not the main reason.

    Anyone?

      I have compared the RC-972 to the RSP-1068 in direct mode. The RC-972 and RC-1070 are closely related.

      I hardly found any sonical difference, apart from the noise level beiing lower on the 972.

      If you really want to go up, the RC-995 is the best Rotel made. The RC-1090 is also a good, but expensive upgrade.

        eelco,
        I have an RC-990.
        Have you any comparison on what improvement the RC-995 is over this?

        Thanks

          Connecting Turntable to RSX-1056
          by merlock
          Hey guys,

          I've recently been considering getting back into vinyl, anyways I noticed that the RSX-1056 does not have a phono input. My question is, can I use a RC 1070 preamp as just a phono stage? Are there rca outputs that I could connect the RC 1070 to my RSX-1056? If I do this, is...

          Questions: Bi-amping RSX-1056 and RB-1070
          by theMaximus
          I'm currently using the preamp output of RSX-1056 along with RB-1070 2-channel amp to power B&W 704s, which are connected by AudioQuest GR8 bi-wire cables. I'm wondering if I would get improvement in sound by driving the 704's HF driver with front channels of RSX-1056 and Mid/Bass driver with RB-1070....

          RSX 1056 and 1070 or 1080 ?
          by Stev
          I already have the 1056 and was decided on getting the 1070 to improve the 2ch SQ over the 1080 due to the posted problems with the 1080 - dont seem to exist with the 1070. My mains are 4 ohm nominal load. Question is given that the RSX 1056 is 100w in 2ch will the 1070's extra 30w be noticeable ? Or...

          New RSX-1056 - which amp 1075 or 1080?
          by a2ee
          Hello!

          I'm new here and from Germany. I've to say these forum is very useful/helpful!

          What has happened: I was not sure should I buy a RSX-1067 or RSX-1056. In the end it was very easy I've got a brand new RSX-1056 (in black, what I prefer) for a VERY good price. ->...
