Description

So this is my first HiFi system. I have been working on it since 2004 when I purchased my Rotel RSX-1067 and my Velodyne sub. I had been running Kenwood front channels for years, but finally, after getting my first REAL job, I was able to purchase a good set of B&W speakers.

This system is intended for home theater use, but will handle 2 channel playback that sounds pretty good for what it is. The RSX-1067 is driving 100wpc and drives all the speakers well, except I think the 9NTs could use a little more power. To that effect, I just purchased a ADCOM GFA-7805 that I have not been able to hook up yet. Its out for repairs.

The entertainment center is custom built and suspended by a single pole. This feature allows the whole station to swivel 25 degrees, which is great for working behind the system.

UPDATE: Added an ADCOM GFA-7805 to my system and its awesome. However now whenever I switch functions I get a "pop" sound. Not sure what is causing it. Any ideas?

ThatÂ’s what I get for trusting spell check.....wait.....never mind. Well here it is I'm an enginer, enginner, engineear........I good with math darn it. LOL I am a mechanical engineer that works with industrial automation (robotics). But now to get on with why I am angry.

Well my Rotel RSX-1067 stopped working this weekend. I am quite upset. It served me well for 11 years. So now I have to make a decision on what I want to do. I am thinking of sending my Rotel in to have it repaired, however last time I sent it to Rotel it came back damaged and frankly I was not happy with the repair work they did. I would like to send it somewhere else, but where would that be? Does anyone know a trustworthy repair shop? Regardless of my atrocious spelling, I do have fairly high standards.

My other option I am considering is to replace my old Rotel with a new Rotel receiver, or a Classe SSP-800. Not sure what to do yet. Any suggestions, other than pointing out my obvious type-o??
