    RSP 1066 buzz on multi input

    Hi Everyone,
    i have been playing around trying to get the best stereo sound out of my system. i have a 1066, 1080 stereo front. 2x 981's, meridian 602/606 CD/DAC. Dynaudio 42 speakers. i want the best sound via the DAC and it seems to be when using the multi input. the problem is when i just plug the stereo out from my DAC the centre and rears buzz, quite loudly. turn off the multi input and they are ok.

    could i terminate them from the DVD, i have a non DVDA player with a analogue 5.1 out. would this cause issues. the DAC also runs the Squeeze box and DVD (on PMC tracks only)


    any thoughts

    have you tried some different cables perhaps...? Are you using any adapters etc in the mix that might not be making a clean connection?

      Has your unit had the BM fix applied to it? If it hasn't you might want to do that and then run your DAC into the CD's analog inputs. Jason's suggestion on different cables is a good one as well just to rule out that possibility.

        Thanks for the replies, it can't be the cables as they work fine for the CD input and its the non connected sockets that are buzzing,

        i havn't done the BM fix, didn't think it was needed on my 1066, i have browsed some of the other threads ans it appears that the CD input in stereo is true analog. i wonder why i find the multi input a better sound?

        should i do the BM fix anyway?

          Digital throughput on 1066
          by keiron99
          I hope I can explain this clearly:

          I have acquired a DAC for my hifi which I want to use for my stereo music listening as it provides higher quality replay than the 1066. I will connect my source to the DAC digitaly, then connect the lineouts of the DAC to the 1066 (in effect just using...

          Using the Multi-Channel Analog Input on the RSP-1066
          by aramb
          How do I connect two separate devices to the RSP-1066 (such as separate DVD-A and SACD machines) when there is only one Multi-Input on the back of the 1066?

          Getting rid of a nasty buzz
          by bigburner
          A nasty buzz recently developed in my system. It started after some rewiring to accommodate a new external DAC. The buzz increased as the system warmed up. After an hour I could just hear the buzz from my listening position with the volume turned down to zero. As you will appreciate this was a totally...

          1066 power cord
          by Brent
          The power cord seems not to fit very snug in the back of my unit. It just seems to be loose, I've pushed as hard as seemed resonable but it just seems wobbley. Does anyone here find this as well? Also on a different note I have my PS2 hooked up via the ps multi cable so I'm only getting anlogue in....
