I just upgraded my 1055 with the 1056. I am using the system with the 1075 amp. I definitely like the new 1056, both in terms of features and sonic quality. I like to hear experiences/comments from the fellow 1056 users/upgraders. What do you think?

Hi Bleakshore
well I am one of the 1056 owners...and I have to say over all I love it....The 2 channel is very nice...however right now I have a bunch of tweaks to do before I can truly say how great it is...
Cinema sound is great...the effects come out better than my (Onkyo
ops
I hear things that I never did before...the effects are picked up and brought out that you can`t miss it....Echoes are great...Cinema sound is clear and precise...not bright...not dark...just natural which is wuite an upgrade for me anyways....I was beginning to hate cinema sound before this receiver...
What I don`t like...The build quality of the audio and video ins and outs...wobly..cheap...should not be on a Rotel...crikes my Onkyo had a better build....
I hate low gain amps...but I know that is just me and has nothing to do with amps power....but I prefer juice and torque at the low level volumes...
Overall 4.5 out 5....would have 5 if not for pins
Bam!Got a nice rack to show me ? -
how much was it to upgrade from the 1055 to the 1056...??
I have the 1055 and if I could get an upgrade...why not??

It cost me basically nothing to upgrade. I bought my 1055 in Oct, 2003 from Myer Emco. They have a 90 day upgrade policy. !056 was a bit late coming, but M-E let me exchage it for free anyway, for about $50.00. Figure it was worth it. If you don't have an arrangement like that, I don't know how much $ it will cost to do the upgrade. Sorry.
Bam - I agree about the build quality. I felt likewise with the 1055. The pins could be sturdier.
But - I might be hallucinating, but I think 1056 does really sound much nicer than the 1055. I was listening some music, but, boy, it sounds sweet!

Hello,
I am interested in the new rsx 1056. Now does my dealer say that probably the 1055 is off a better quality because both receivers have the same price and the 1056 has more features he thinks the quality off te 1056 will be lower than the 1055. My question is are there more changes... -
I have been following the traffic on this site for several months and I have found the questions and answers extremely valuable in my making my own decisions. Based on the information I have learned and my own listening at the dealer, I have decided to purchase a Rotel/B&W system, which I detail... -
The title pretty much says it all. I'm searching the used market and want to make my first Rotel purchase. There's no way I can afford a new model, so the 1057 is out. But, I do see both the 1056 and the 1055 pop up frequently. Actually, my local dealer has dealer demos of both, separated by about $100.... -

Mains are Quad 12L's
