    audio quality when using 'zone out' plugs for a preamp on the RSX-1057?

    So here's my idea; I have a room dedicated for hometheater with a rotel rsx1057 running a B&W DM300 series surround set.

    I also have an RB-1080, 2 B&W 683's and a rcd-1072 setup with a Rc-1070 in another room.

    I'd like to use the 683 in the theater room because of its layout, the room they're in right now is aweful for acoustics.

    I don't have the cash to buy a whole new set of speakers or any more gear in general.

    Can I setup the RB-1080 through the zone output on the RSX-1057, using that amp alone to run the 683's for music playback? This way I can leave the DM300 speakers connected the 1057 at the same time for everything else.

    Can I expect the same quality with the 1057 reciever as a preamp as lets say using a Rc-1070? Does the 'zone out' plug have the same quality circuitry as any of the other pre-amp outputs on the 1057?

    Remote (RR-1060) no longer working with receiver (RSX-1057)

    I recently got a hand-me-down RSX-1057 from my father along with an RR-1060 remote but I am unable to control the RSX-1057 with the RR-1060. Both units were unused (and unpowered) for a couple of years before I started playing with them yesterday.

    Before anyone posts it, yes I have...

    Hi Rotelians,
    Here is a newbie again probably with a silly question. I live in germany, I got my rotel 1057 over the weekend and set it up with my BW 602's on stereo mode. I owned a yamaha 595 and later a denon AVR-1804 and now I realize what I have been missing. This is a great...

    Hi folks,

    I'm looking to replace my Denon AVR 3300, which starts giving me intermittent audio problems. I have B&W Nautilus 804 and HTM2, rated at 50-200W. I have seriously considered a Rotel 1057 until I auditioned an Arcam AVR250. 8O

    RSX1057 vs. RSX1058
    by unclemick
    So in my hopes to find a deal on a 1058 to replace my 1057, I have a question. My 1057 suffers from lack of HDMI not to mention that the HDMI does only video. My question is, can the 1058 accept a component video input, yet output to one of it's HDMI outputs? My 1057 can't and I would love to just...
