    Hello Club Rotel! / Video Switching Question

    Hello,
    Thanks to reading your forum for the past few days, I pulled the trigger and purchased my 1066 yesterday. Whee!

    I have a boat-load of questions, but here is my first:

    Do you recommend that I use the 1066 for video switching?

    I have:
    2 S-video sources (Cable and Tivo),
    2 Component Sources (HD Cable and DVD),
    1 Composite Source (VCR)

    On one hand I've read that you should never use a pre-pro for video switching due to signal loss. But on the other hand, I read the Sound and Vision review that said that the 1066 video switching was great, as long as you have the newer 1066 with the upgraded bandwidth for component video / HD.

    How do I tell if I have a new enough unit?

    Thanks all for your help!

    Newbie-ishly yours,
    Pete

I currently have a NAD T752 hooked up to two older Rotel RMB956ax amps and powered Def Tech speakers. While I am happy with the sound I now have, I have always...

    life with rsp 1068 vs 1066 vs 1098
    by rosros
    In feb I had a chance of comparing side by side the rsp 1098 with the rsp 1066. at the time, I was thinking about upgrading from the 1066 to the 1098. the rsp 1098 was a loaner from my rotel dealer. I had the 1098 for one week. Although the 1066 is a wonderful unit, for my usage, ultimately, it was...
