Hi Rotelians,
Here is a newbie again probably with a silly question. I live in germany, I got my rotel 1057 over the weekend and set it up with my BW 602's on stereo mode. I owned a yamaha 595 and later a denon AVR-1804 and now I realize what I have been missing. This is a great receiver.
In the process of setting up the system and playing around a bit, when I was playing the "sultan of Swing" I noticed the receiver clipping at around volume of 65 ( it goes about to 80). Since I had the remote ( I like the remote- It learns so easily) in my hand I thought i must have pressed some button. So, repeated the steps again, there... again at about the same level the system clipped, I tried different CDs it always clipped between 65 and 70. I think the 602s can handle more power, I have bi-wired them with Kimber 8TC. The 1057 is rated 100w for 2 channel, I did not expect it to clip. Ofcourse I checked the connection, everything looks as it should.
What am I doing wrong ?
On the side note, I have a REL storm V and every time I power on/off there is pop sound. Previously I have had Velodyne VLF 1012, I have a more bassy but mild thud, but the REL gives pop. Is this normal.
Thanks In advance.
