As you may recall, I posted a couple of weeks ago reporting
serious problems with my 1098 (thumping, glitching, EM sensitivity
to heaters and refrigerators turning on).
The dealer gave me his demo unit, which exhibited none of these problems (except for some residual clicks when switching from non-HDTV to HDTV programming). Emboldened by this and by the enthusiastic reports from this forum, I agreed to wait for a 2nd replacement unit (his demo was in black, and my original unit was in silver).
Well, the good news is that the new unit arrived and was installed 2 days ago. So far, it has exhibited no problems whatsoever, with no clicks or glitches. Everything seems flawless.
The unit came with 1.1.6, and I don't plan to upgrade anytime soon. Judging from the reports on this forum, the 2.1.1 upgrade can cause problems, and I can't avail of the added IIx processing anyway. I don't have rear back speakers, and am running only a 5.1 system.
