It's not only Digital amplification, it's a FULL digital concept from SACD disc content right through the speakers output. It's totally different than the things we're used to, separates included. Btw, in a full digital concept, separates looses much of their interest. And I am a...
There's a small USB device from Harman, the DAL 150 which can pass native mp3 on the spdif. I still haven't figured out the way to do it with a regular soundcard though
Hi
I bought a DVD-Audio disc with a DTS 24/96 soundtrack, (Queen a night at the Opera).
Feeding the 1066 with the track, I get a DTS-ES 6.1 DISCRETE stream recognition, no way to switch to regular DTS on the 1066.

Another finding :
if you press the remote's "Menu" button long enough, that will turn off the 1066's display.
It will then turn on again each time you press something and go off automatically a few seconds later.
To restore display, just press and hold Menu again ;)

Just downloaded the file and took a look at it using a hex editor.
Around position 24876 in Hexa, there's some strings for a Tuner setup like "FM", "AM", "100Khz", "Auto Step" "RDS" and associated music styles.
Does the 1066 shares the firmware with the RSX-1055 ?
Hi,
I just received a new upgrade file from Rotel, named sp1066upgrade.bin .
no mention of the firmware's version.
I did a binary compare with version 1.42 and its different.
Is that the 1.43 ?
Anyone knows what's changed from 1.42 ?
Thanks
Thanks Steven

On the bass management question, pages 40 to 55, looking at Figures 9 and 10 it looks like the LFE...
Hi
Does anyone knows if the bass/treble correction is analog or digital ?
I know the Crystal CS49326 inside the rotel can do it in digital but then that wouln't work for the analog passthrough mode.
Thanks.
