    "Knob" Light?

    I just got my 1066 pre/pro last night and noticed that the blue surround around the central knob wasn't lit up. I could've sworn that, in some of the pictures I've seen, there was a light around the center knob. Am I just hallucinating???

      Yup...that's what I'm talking about. Great. So this means that I have to get a new unit I suppose. :cry:

        Ron,

        There is nothing wrong with your unit. The ring around the voume control does not light up. It only seems so when light is shined on it.

        What Sayer was doing in his photo was showing you that it really "seems" that the ring lights up - but it does not. The ring in Sayer's photo is NOT lit, the flash on his camera just made it seem so.

          This has become an urban myth. The forces of good must dispel this evil misconception.

            Ya know, that definitely crossed my mind, but I thought it was really weird that it looked like that in every picture I saw. Man, do I feel like a D. A.!!! ops:

              Ron,

              No need to feel "like a D.A." When this subject first came up, I had to go double check the volume rings myself. :LOL:

                  LOL! I have the latest update... Need to test out that cable a friend made for me.

                  Maybe I will do it tonight. I also got a set of the Aura Bass Shakers today that I need to install. Oh, got some new component cables for the front projector too. I guess my work is cut out for me tonight!

                    That's Sayer's M.O. He got me when I asked just a few weeks ago. It's almost his calling card now.

                    The easiest way to find something lost around the house, is to buy a replacement.

                    As long as people will accept crap, it will be financially profitable to dispense it.

                      LOL! I've only done it twice!!!! :twisted:

                      We should create a post that stays at the top of the forum explaining the volume knob light situation.

                        1066 Issue
                        by spacey
                        I just purchased a 1066-1075 combo (black). There is a reddish ring around the volume knob of the 1066. It looks like it might light up, however mine does not. Is there supposed to be a light around the volume knob?

                        Thanks

                        I received my brand spanking new 1066 in silver yesterday and have spent a few hours setting up and calibrating the unit. My question is how do I find out the software version that's installed in this puppy? I searched here but couldn't locate the answer. This is a new unit that came to my dealer in...

                        by SayersWeb
                        Yesterday Cox Cable came out and installed their HDTV cable service. The bad news is that the HD channels seem to be the only ones sending audio over the digital coax audio output. The rest of the channels use the composit analog audio outputs.
