Hi I just joined. I have a RSX-1056 and use it in a 5 channel system. It drives B&W 703s for the front mains. I thought I needed a little more power to drive the front speakers and got a rb-1080. I thought going from 75W->200W would make it sound better and for some of the music I play allot "louder". It does sound better but not much louder at the same volume level i.e. 55 sounds about the same level of loudness. Is something wrong?
Also a weird thing, the CD player worked ok on the 1056 but when I hooked up the 1080 there is a loud 60hz hum. The optical connection is ok? Why would I get hum with the 1080 and not with just the 1056.
Any advice??
thanks in advance.
Regards,
Steve
