"Appears my wife made the final decision on what I should do with regards to upgrading from my rsx 1055. I was trying to decide between 1068/1075 and 1067. It turns out she gave me the RSX 1067 for xmas, and I have to admit I was very surprised with it

I could have returned it, but after a lot of thinking and consideration I just didnt have the room for it at this point. Below are some photos of the set up.

The unit is considerably better at low and high volumes then my RSX 1055.

I am still a little concerned with a heat issue as you can see its fits tight. I do however have about 5 inches below it becuase its sitting on a shelf with holes under the fans. I also bought a computer fan to blow air accross the top of it."

Man this dude(over at Club Rotel) got a 1067 from Rotel from his wife for Christmas.. are you kidding me??? My wife would never do this for me. She would buy me a car before new audio gear. Damn

    My wife would set fire to herself before she bought me a piece of stereo equipment.

    I don't know you married to a buddhist monk, Mark ? :)

    I actually think that, unless my wife is completely into audio as much as I do, I rather have the authorization to spend money, more than actually letting her bought me a gear. But, that's just me.
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.
