I have a Denon 1602 i wish to upgrade.
Mains are Quad 12L's
Quad Centre
Wharfedale delta rears
HSU VTF-2 sub
My aim is outright sound quality 2ch and mulitchannel improvement.
I can get a 1055 for $1500AUD and a 1056 for $2250
Im thinking the 1055 is much better value (and more in my budget).
What "differences" are there....... seem fairly similar.
Ok on the 1055.
I need to be able to "setup" the system without a display as my display is feed VGA and i will not always have it on when the 1055 will be used (ie use a VGA to LCD touch screen etc). Can all the settings be changed on the LCD? (i figured all recievers could.... but noticed mates 3803 could not.... amazing).
Also as i feed "digital" from a HTPC i need to know how good it handles such.
DTV here on channel change switches MPEG Audio (feed PCM) and DD 2.0 and 5.1 etc so it NEEDS to be like my 1602 ie audio "decoding" in the reciever changes immediately.... or at least very quickly.
I have heard issues here with NAD and HK units ....... are Rotel the same?
Any opinions would be great.
