.... I hope!
Been reading you all for some time, and just last night brought home my RMB-1075 and RSP-1068, thanks in part to input I read here. Thank you.
I'm replacing an ancient Pioneer SX-680 receiver, which, surprisingly, has (and still does) put out a pretty nice sound.
So, for the money I've just spent, I'm expecting a breathtakingly better sound.
Last night, I spent the evening just getting things set up, and haven't had a lot of time to do comparison listening.
My comparison (and decision on whether to keep the combo) will be primarily using 2 channel inputs. This is for two reasons:
1) I am very interested in improving my 2 channel stereo listening experience, and
2) I don't yet have surround speakers to do 5.1 listening. My plan is to upgrade this area later.
So... my questions to the experts:
1) am I being unrealistic to expect a "breathtakingly better" output from this setup than I was seeing with my old pioneer gear?
2) What is the best way to process 2 channel CD sound through the preamp?
Thanks everyone. Looking forward to getting settled in with the new gear
