Just got my new RSP-1570 set up, and I'm starting to run it through the normal battery of tests. One question I have is about the processor's ability to decode DVD-Audio. According to the manual "DVD-A high-resolution multichannel audio signals are automatically detected." I've never known of a DVD-A player that can bitstream DVD-Audio (MLP), so I'm wondering what the value of this is. Multi-channel PCM decoded in my Oppo sounds fantastic either way, but I'm just curious about this feature that is seemingly unique to the Rotel.

Any DVD-A player with at least HDMI 1.1 that I've seen will output the DVD-A signal as a multi channel PCM. It's not something unique to Rotel.

Exactly...the player decodes the DVD-Audio and sends multi-channel PCM. But, according to Rotel, the processor can also decode the DVD-Audio (similar to how some receivers/processors can decode DSD directly). That's the part that seems to be unique to Rotel.BradComment

One of the ways in which I have enjoyed listening to my DVD Concerts is no longer available to me thanks to the "unwillingness" of this RSP1570 to perform as I wish it to rather than the way it "wishes" to.

When I played a CD in my CD player through an optical connection to the 1570, the first half-measure or so of the first song was cut off.....just sounded like it skipped the first... -
Just received my new rsp1570. After two hours trying to get the OSD to come up on my pioneer plasma ( only after defaulting the remote ) I managed to hook up my rotel rotel cd player, rotel dvd player rdv1045, and my pioneer blu-ray.
I havent had much time to tinker but the bluray audio...02 June 2009, 01:26 Tuesday -
I am considering purchasing a Pioneer 563A ($180) universal player to replace my Toshiba SD5700. I am currently using just the digital connection (not using the 5 analog cables for DVDA). This will be my first experience with DVDA/SACD in conjunction with my 1066 so please bear with me.

Just bought my first DVDA, Vivaldi's Four Seasons, and need to know how to set up the Rotel 1066. Denon 1600 DVD player to output DVDA. Right now, I've placed the disc in the 1600 and sound seems to come out of all speakers after I pushed the Multi Imput button on the Rotel's front panel. The display...
