    Bad luck turned good!

    Haven't posted here for quite a while, so I thought I would just share a story.
    My rsx1055 was in repairs recently as it developed a horrible buzzing sound.
    Anyway I get a phone call telling me it is ready to be picked up.
    OK. The day I was going to pick it up, I receive a phone call telling me that the shop had a smash and grab and my amplifier was one of things to get grabbed :cry: He told to call that afternoon to work something out.
    Well you could imagine how I was feeling. What luck.
    Well I called that afternoon expecting the worst, the guy on the line was apologetic, told me he couldn't another 1055, so ordered me a 1056! Wow, II wasn't even planning to upgrade.
    So I get brand new 1056 in box, an apologee that they couldn't get a 1055,
    and it will be here in a few days.
    Hows that for good service an a bit of luck :T

    Well, you might even get upgraded to a 1057, as the 1056's are proving to be scarce (;

        ROTEL 1066/1075 vs. 1055/1070
        by doodleboytoy
        I am strongly considering Rotel for my new HT setup due to the numerous positive reviews I read about it. Currently, my plan is to run Paradigm Studio 60 fronts, Studio CC and Studio ADP surrounds using either a Rotel 1066 + 1075 set-up or a 1055 set-up in a 25’ x 20’ room.

        by Amras
        Sorry- I didn't have luck with any searches-

        Will it be possible to upgrade the 1055 to handle DTS96/24? Will the hardware support a firmware upgrade or will it require new hardware? Is Rotel even considering this or any further updates to the 1055 or does it just have it's eyes on the...

        erratic remote/IR on 1055?
        by stewc
        I'm a 1055 newbie, and I'm having trouble with what seems to be erratic behavior of either the new remote or the receiving eye on the 1055 itself. Specifically, the power on, sent via IR, doesn't consistently work which makes all subsequent commands a bit, um, difficult. Problems with other commands...
