A little background here.
I've owned this RSP-1068 for almost 2 years now. About 6 months ago, my center channel more or less stopped working.
I checked my amp, checked my cabling, checked my settings, everything as fine. If i went into the test tones, and cranked the volume way up, I could hear the tone (faintly).
I said meh, and disabled the center channel in the menu. It sounded OK, but obviously I wasn't happy with not having a functional center channel.
A few months later I went to turn the unit on, and it wouldn't power on. I had the unit sent back to Rotel, and it was gone for over a month. It came back and everything was fine.
Fast forward 2 weeks ago to yesterday. I am watching TV, and realized I had the volume at 75 because I couldn't hear any dialog. I went into my test tones and the unit is doing the same thing it did prior to me having it repaired.
I've written Rotel technical support asking if this is a known issue, as I am a little peeved that it has gone bad on me weeks after I got it back from repair (and having to spend $100 on shipping to/from the nearest repair center).
I am running 1.2.5 (upgraded at the factory), and am starting to become a little disenchanted
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm certain the cabling, amplifier and speaker are fine, because when the unit WAS working well after it returned from repair.
