As I continue to await the arrival of my 1066 / 1075 combo I noticed I keep coming across the same complaint about the 1066; all system settings and adjustments must be done through the OSD and/or system info is only displayed on the OSD. What exactly does this mean? In reading over the 1066 owners manual it appears the 1066 displays whether the source is digital or analog, Dolby Digital, DTS, etc. As well as the source being played. What else is there? What am I missing here?

Mark,
What people mean is that if you need to change the speakers from large to small, change the crossover or many other features on the 1066. You need to bring a menu screen up so you can navigate and make the change. Many of the features in the onscreen menus aren't available from the 1066 LCD display.

Ahhh, now I see the light. No big deal. My Pioneer Elite of 3 years works the same way. Now I just need for the Rotel stork to deliver my gear! It was supposed to be here today, but it didn't show, so I wait.Comment

To take it one step further.... If you are viewing using the Component outputs, the OSD does not work. You have to change the display device to S-video or Composit inputs to see the OSD, make adjustments, and then switch back to the component input.

Pretty much everything in the OSD menus is of the "set it and forget it" category, so I don't find this to be a big deal.
You can do things like change surround modes, tweak channel levels, etc from the remote without using the OSD menu.
The only thing missing that I would really like to be able to tweak without going into the OSD is the Prlogic2 Music settings.

Since my TV have 7 inputs. I just pout the reciever's "mon out" into Video-1 of the tv. Then, when I need to make adjustments, I do a split (PiP) screen. That way I have the original source picture, and the OSD up at the same time.

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.

My equipment finally came in. My dealer opens at 9:00 tomorrow, I'll be there at 9:01. The best part is I'm off from work tomorrow due to Presidents Day. Hopefully it's a good day!Comment

1066 owners,
A couple of ?'s if you guys don't mind....
1. Is there anyway to switch DTS NEO modes from the remote? In the manual it states to use the filter button however this is not working for me.
2. I can't decide on a 60 or 80 hz crossover for movies. I have... -
To all of the new 1066 owners out there: Make sure that once you have everything setup in the OSD, ie. labels, speaker levels, input sources, etc. go to the default area and save your settings. I found out the hard way Saturday night that if you don't do this and you lose power for some reason you also... -
Boy I'll tell ya a little knowledge is dangerous. I was all set yesterday to get a new 1066 from my local dealer. Great price, love the unit's features and looks, I am a rotel owner-1095, 1080 tuner & rsp-980. Well I found this great forum and started reading the posts I feel like I am making a... -
1066 owners – I ‘m asking for advice! I’ve had an RSP 1066 on order since May, when the initial shipment to Australia sold out.
Now ‘my’ unit is due to arrive in Oz in just a week – and Rotel still has not corrected the bass management issues in the firmware.

I was recently told by one of my local friendly Rotel dealers that the RSP 1066 IS capable of processing DPLIIx but Rotel is refraining from writing a software upgrade so as to not discourage upgrades to the RSP 1068 by current 1066 owners.
It seems the processing power is there in the...
