    New 1068/1075 owner! I've got questions...

    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 it was running. It has version 1.1.3 installed. How hard is it to do the update yourself? Should the dealer handle this? Does anyone have any advice/hints on doing the update? Any comments are greatly appreciated.

    Thanks, resperc

      I'd say, seen as how you're going on vacation for two weeks, take it in to your dealer, let them do it and pick it up after your vacation. If you have a fairly decent set of computing skills it not really all that difficult but with you not being there anyways you may as well take the easy way out :B

          Speaking of firmware. I just checked my 1068 and it came with 1.1.7. I thought that 1.1.4 was the latest. Or am I missing something here?

              According to the info I can gather from the Rotel website 1.1.7 is the latest upgrade. I could be missing something, but I believe this is correct. There is a link on the website that says "downlowds". Look there and you should find it too. resperc

                  Seems like the US version of the web site is updated more often.

                  US: http://www.rotel.com/support/techups...ater-index.htm
                  Global: http://europe.rotel.com/support/tech...ater-index.htm

                  That explains it

                      I have a friend who is an internet/computer guru and we were able to do the upgrade w/o a hitch. I now have 1.1.7 installed on my new 1068. Too bad I don't have the time to hook it up. Oh well... :rofl:

                      I will post my impressions when I get it all "up-and-runnin'". resperc

                          No worries then ... So how tempted are you to take it with you on vacation, just so you can play with it? :P :lol:

                              Questions about power indicators/LEDs on 1068 and 1075
                              by tennberg
                              Hi everyone,

                              I have two questions about newly purchased 1068 and 1075 for my HT system.

                              1. When I turn off the 1075 amp, the red LED turns off. Then, all 5 protection fault lights come on at the same time for a second, then shut down in unison. Is this normal? I could not...

                              Connection on RSP-1068 / RMB-1075
                              by loup
                              So if I went with the 1068 and 1075. I'm going to connect the front, center and rear to the 1075. Where do I connect the sub? Would I have to get another amp? Would I be better getting the RSX-1056 and 1075 instead?

                              Size & weight of shipping boxes for 1068&1075
                              by Jonas78
                              Hi,

                              I would be very happy if someone could give me the dimensions and shipping weight of the boxes for these two products:
                              RSP-1068 & RMB-1075

                              The reason for this is, so I can estimate what the shipping cost would be for these products.

                              Thanks...

                              I found this forum about a week ago and I don't know if I should thank you or chastize you for getting me back into the game of "upgraditis". A lot of good information here. Thank you. I apologize in advance for the length of this message. I have looked through a lot of the other threads but...

                              New gear (1068+1075), too stupid to get any sound?
                              by Kyle
                              Trying to setup my 1068 and 1075. Have my interconnects going from the preouts on the 1068 into the 1075 and the 1075 is on (with no protection lights lit).

                              No matter what type of source i try (analog w/ an ipod, optical with my dvd player), I can't seem to get a peep out of the speakers....
