    1068/1075 1st. 24 hours

    Hooked up the 1068/1075 yesterday.

    Initially had the units unboxed and setup at the dealer. At the dealer they
    were dead quiet. At my place, there is a slight hum (6" from the speakers).
    I'll track down the ground loop in due time.

    Initial impressions:

    Call me crazy, but the "pass through" on the 1068 has made a dramatic
    difference in the picture quality on DVD's. At first, I thought maybe I was
    just thinking there was a difference. Later, my wife walked by and said
    "what did you do to the TV, that picture looks great". Note, I did not change
    cables or make any other modifications.

    I still have my original speakers - Paradigm Titans (fronts), CC170 (center),
    a couple of in-walls (rears) and Paradigm Sub.
    The 1068/1075 sounds really good. There is a big difference, as compared
    to my RSX-972. Note, I haven't had time to do any tweaking.

    The 1075 certainly does not run hot, just a little warm. The 1068 is just a
    little warmer, but not hot.

    Just my impressions

      Good to hear you're enjoying your new gear. :T I've had my 1068/1075 combo for about a week or so. I'm loving it also. There was a thread about the hum that is audible when in 2 channel mode with volume set to 5 or so. You can hear a slight hum through the center and surrounds. To my ears the hum is very faint. So faint that my ht could be in a telephone booth and it wouldn't bother me. :lol:

          Hi all:

          I will purchase a pair of B&W CM4 speakers and a CM series central channel. I live in an apartment right now so don't have the space to setup 5.1 but I will move into a house in next two year. I am also going to a Rotel receiver or pre/pro/amp combo. My candidate choices are:...

          Which is the better combo - 1066/1095 or 1068/1075

          Hey all,

          I just recently bought an RSX-1067 and RCD-1072 CD player. I'm really loving the sound and enjoying the music right now...at least for the most part. For my main speakers, I have Axiom M80's ti's (excellent speaker btw), which run at 4 ohms. Now the 1067 will physically drive...

          Thinking about the 1068/1075 Combo?
          by CougarCruiser
          I had a chance to visit my local Rotel dealer today. WOW was I amazed. I've been thoroughly happy with my Sony ES receiver, past experience with Harman Kardon, and generally budget-friendly hifi equipment.

          I feel the bug coming though... I saw the 1068/1075 and auditioned them with...

          by resperc
          Just came home with my new gear (1068/1075). I won't get to hook them up for almost 2 weeks (leaving on vacation). However, I am still very excited. This should be a HUGE upgrade from my 3 yr old Onkyo reciever.

          I do have some questions. I hooked up the 1068 to verify which software...
