Rotel RSP 1068 now 4.1 system PLEASE HELP!

I hope anyone with some insight can make some suggestions.

I have been using an RSP1068 and RMB1075 for about 2.5 years with B&W Nautilus 804N and a centre HTM2.

I recently purchased some N805S and spent the better part of two days cleaning up my system and hooking them up. When balancing and configuring with an SPL meter everything functioned fine and I balanced it all to reference level.

After settling down, I noticed my REAR LEFT speaker was barely outputting a signal.
a) Checked speaker cabling <CHECK> Still No Sound
b) Checked amplifier channel (switched left and right) problem moved
to RIGHT channel speaker which was working and LEFT stopped functioning properly.
c) Changed amplifier-pre pro transparent interconnect on rear left/rear right. No difference.
d) Swapper Rear Left with Rear Right on Pre-Pro. Problem transfers from REAR LEFT to REAR RIGHT.

There is a signal, one being very faint, being sent by the pre-pro to the rear left channel. The channel is sent to +2DB.

Also, I have tried different sources, DVD player, Cable box, Xbox 360. All with the same result. I've isolated it back to the pre-pro.


Any clues as to what is going on?!?! Totally baffled. Considering it did work when it was wired up because I measured it with the SPL meter.

Crazy!

Thanks in advance,

Could be a bad DSP board. Have you tried unplugging it for a few minutes to do a reset?

You might want to check all connections. Recheck all settings. If that works to no avail, then it's time to send your Pre/Pro to your dealer.

I had a similar issue, and for whatever reason, compeltely disconnecting and reconnecting everything fixed it, so at least give that a go.

Thanks for the replies. I did re-connect all cables with no luck. It looks like the unit has to go in for service after talking to my dealer. So i'll have to prepare myself for 3 weeks without any sound.

I did re-check all settings.

Kind of a shame. Second problem with the rotel unit, and it was probably there all along waiting for me to buy my 805's.

Thanks all,
