I know when we first brought out the 1001 onto my sales floor, we had a HUGE amount of hiss coming from it. So we replaced it three times and still got hiss, but a lil less each time. I think HK just had a defective model that they haven't fixed. They claim the new DPR's are better... we shall see though.

Yeah, I reconnected the speakers today and fixed the "hollow" sound (I think Dennis was right, the bi-connector wasn't tightened down)...but the hiss is really quite noticeable within 4-5 feet of the speaker, even with music playing. Think I'll take it back today and get an analog receiver.
