    My RMB-1077 thoughts.

    This thing is AMAZING!!! We just had a 30th anniversary event at our store and we had all the manufacturers in the store doing demos of their products. B&W/Rotel/Runco had a room set up with Rotel 1098/RDV-1092/RMB-1077 and also a Toshiba HDDVD running to a Runco RS1100 1080p projector. THe video was stunning to say the least!.....but the audio.....look out.

    B&W 803D, HTM2D, and 4 LCR8 for surrounds and the ASW855 sub. I could not believe the volume, dynamics, detail and clarity that little amp provided to the speaker system in that room. It was unreal....and when the rep pointed out to the audience the only amplifier in the system after the demo, everyone went 'ooh' 'ahh' etc. Fascinating piece of technology in both design and execution. I am sold. I would definitely consider that amp for my own home cinema system.

      I just ordered a 1077 today with a 1068 to replace my RSX 1067. I have 15 HD DVD tittles with 7 more on pre-order. This will be a great season.

      By the time the 1068 and 1077 come in I should have Batman Begins on HD DVD (it has Dolby TruHD!!). I am anticipating that will be my best Home Theater (even cinima) experience to date. :T

      HD DVDs on a Toshiba A1 look better then ANY SD DVD on ANY SD DVD player...and it only costs $600 CDN!! Not to mention there are some great HD DVD tittles. 5 HD DVD tittles are in the top 100 selling on Amazone.com :W

          Congrats.
          The 1068 is a GREAT pre/pro, it is very musical and does a wonderful job !
          You will enjoy it very much for any audio/video job it will engage with !
          Cheers

              DVD v.s. DVHS Shootout
              by Bob
              Last night I had the privilage to watch an extensive demo of DVHS or D-theater (which is what it is being called) at Widescreen Reveiw's incredible reference video theater. I wish that at least one other member would have been there, not only to verify what I saw and heard but also because I am a terrible...

              Last hurrah for a Runco CRT projector
              by kennethma
              I have a Runco IDP980 (8" CRT) projector which has served me well since 1996. Wish I could say the same for my Faroudja LD 100 line doubler, which was great for anamorphic DVDs but now has completely died on me. Living in Brazil now, which means buying fancy new DLP projector is not an option...

              Suggestions to replace a Runco VX-1c dlp?
              by JayM
              We built a home theater three years ago (our first) and among the componentry installed was a single-chip Runco dlp (a VX-1c), which has been a nightmare from a reliability standpoint from day 1. It has spent more time with the installer and Runco than in our theater, with the result that at last logging...

              RMB1077 and RSX1057 system
              by bullitt731
              I was planning on using an RSX1057 as a processor with an RMB1077 hooked up to a pair of B&W 804s and a HTM3s. Orignally I thought I would biamp and biwire the L and R fronts using 4 channels of the RMB1077 while using the remaining 3 channels to drive the center and back surrounds.

              I am sure if you own an HD DVD player you know this tittles is out Tuesday and up for Pre-order on amazon. If you dont know about it I would highly recomend it. I have seen parts on discovery and the early reviews say the HD content is nothing less then amazing. I personally love content about nature...this...
