    New poster--Receiver recs 965/972?

    I am considering the above two Rotels for my first true foray into HT. I will only be using 5.1 for the forseeable future, due to room dynamics, so I don't need all the bells and whistles of some products. Need basically dd/dts, 5.1 inputs, clean power for both music and movies.

    Any suggestions on the 965 or 972? Is the 972 worth the extra $$ for my situation? Speakers are Def Tech Studio Monitor 350s, C2 center, BP1.2x surrounds, ProSub80.

    Thanks in advance...

    Both of these are discontinued models. What price can you get them for? Needs to be a deal.

      RSX 972,965 prices and upgrades.
      by Jamie
      I was just at a dealer and he reminded me of my old RSX 965. I had it and there was a distinctive hum being generated somewhere and it sounded like a grounding issue but I couldn't get around it. Finally after much complaining my Rotel store took it in to be fixed and the tech guy said it was definitely...

      by ALLAN H
      Hi there,

      H/ever I still have an RC-970BX pre-amp and two RB-970BX p/amps running my stereo and driving the front speakers in bi-amped, bi-wired set-up.
      The RSX-972 runs my centre, rears & sub. The fronts are run through...

      Connecting Poweramp to Rotel RSX-972
      by Gdbeck
      Just to be on the safe side before I do this.....
      I going to connect my stereo Rotel poweramp up to my Rotel RSX-972 (front speakers only). I have connected the poweramp to the Rotel line out front jacks. My question is this. Since I no longer need amplification from the Rotel front amplifiers...

      Rotel RSX-972 / RB980BX combo (review)
      by Gdbeck
      Great Budget Combo....
      I used to be a stero junkie, must have owned 25-30 different stereo systems always looking for that perfect sound. That was until I found Rotel and specifically the RB980BX poweramp (which goes ever so well with my Newform Research Ribbon speakers). This setup met all...
