Recently got a used RSX 1056 from Ebay at a really good price. it turned out to be a deal too good to be true, when I hooked up all the speakers and components, there seems to be a clicking and popping noise when it's being used. I've brought it to a authorized rotel repair center and they told me the digital board on it needs to be replaced and it will cost $600. Does any of you guys have dealt with stuff like this out-of--warranty? Does it have to be done by a rotel center? Or can it be done by someone else at a lower price? Really want to keep this unit, even though it's out dated, but the sound quality is so good when using the multi-analog inputs.

The clicking a popping noise is common problem (I had it myself) and yes, it appears to be the digital board in most cases. Sadly, this problem will only get worse and in time, the unit will not work at all digitally. If you use 2ch analog bypass, the unit will work fine but there is no 5ch operation, sub output or bass management etc. Only straight out 2ch stereo.
I honestly don't know if a 3rd party place could fix it. I personally would not recommend it but then again, I sent my unit in for repair @ Rotel, waited a month to get it back only for it to fail again in one day!. At least if you send it to Rotel and it fails again, the repair warranty will cover it and they'll have no choice to fix it again until it's done right. It's the waiting a month to get it back that kills me. Not having music for a month is kinda' a deal breaker for me!. NOT fun!!.Dan Madden :T

Hi, I've been a lurker for 6 months. I am going upgrade my reciever and speakers within the next year. I like most are on a limited budget. I've got the problem that my wife wants the Cewin Vega D-9's out of the living/dining room "too big". So I started looking at speakers JM Lab, Klipsch,... -
My Rotel remote RR-1050 will not change the RSX 1056 on-screen displays. Trying to change from analog to Dolby sound. This is after a time when I heard speakers popping when system was off in stand by. Took it in to the dealer and they said there was not problem. Have not had popping after... -
I have a Rotel RSX-1056 and B&W speakers (5:1 setup). Recently while watching TV, the sound went out and the front panel of the RSX-1056 went blank. The blue standby light was still on, but no sound. Subsequently, a fine black powder filled the family room and created a haze, which was dispersed... -
Hi,
I am having a problem with my RSX-1056, and was wondering if anyone ever had a similar problem. I searched in other threads, but couldn't find anything like my situation.
