just got my 1065 any tweaks reccomended

[ezc]

Im new to this forum but seems to be the be the best place for Rotel info! I just got a RSX 1065
Is there any reccomended tweaks that can or should be done? So far the 1065 preformance has been 100% better than my Onkyo txds 595. Im running LSi15 in the fromt mains, LSiC & LSiFX for the rear surrounds. Im very happy with the reciver, but if there are ways to improve Id give it a shot!

Hi, welcome, good to hear you're pleased with your purchase.

As to tweaks - better quality interconnects and rack, plenty of breathing space etc

Not sure what if anything can be done to the unit itself though to improve it.

Have you calibrated your speakers utilizing an SPL meter to ensure all speakers are at the same decibel level?

Congrats on your purchase!

Read the FAQ regarding firmware updates etc. Those may be useful depending on when your unit shipped from the factory. There are a few minor changes/updates etc.

I just bought my 1065 last week and it came with the connector for linking to your computer. A nice touch I thought! If you're has it, don't loose it.

What remote did yours have? I was supprised to find that Rotel changed the remote. I have a 1050 instead of the 9XX.

Thanks for the replys! I have a Boltz rack with super spikes, & I had to increase the shelf hight from 10" to 14" with new side & back supports so there is enough room for cooling. I just got the upgraded software e-mailed to me & ill put it in later this weekend. The speakers are calibrated & sound 100% better with this revicer. I did get the new remote & the programing cable included with my 1065. This reciver has preformed well over what I had expected. Im very satisfied with the preformance 1065 so far. One thing I noticed is that the 1065 runs very warm compared to my Onkyo. The onkyo never got warm to a point where the top shelf got warm but with the 1065 the top shelf gets warm during normal use. My first upgrade was ordering the 14" supports to have more room for cooling, I had to order it the day after I got the reciver installed. Thanks for the input
