    Rotel RMB 1095 - still worth buying considering the age?

    Went with the 7005 - hopefully by next weekend the kid nagging will come to an end.

    Rotel RMB 1095 - still worth buying considering the age?

    Thanks, only looking at spending about R10k as I don't want to go overboard again. My previous experience in AV wasn't that pleasant, dodgy receiver (Onkyo), speaker issues, projector issues, etc. Pretty much why I've been out of it for awhile - but trying to get it going again for the kids...

    Rotel RMB 1095 - still worth buying considering the age?

    This is my biggest issue. I've had such hit and miss with these things and HDMI. (even "simple" HDMI video over ethernet to get the video up in the roof) Although, it might be something worth considering, even if a bit older than the other two I posted. (looking at his pictures, it might of...

    Rotel RMB 1095 - still worth buying considering the age?

    So I officially have a 1095 - and nothing upstream to use it with. Been hunting around for a 4k receiver with up to date enough features - and pre-outs, and haven't really come across. I've found a Yamaha RX-A860 (R8,690) and a Marantz SR7009 (R11,490), both from the Hifi Guy up in...

    Rotel RMB 1095 - still worth buying considering the age?

    Slightly unrelated, are there any drawbacks to pairing something like this with a "cheap" 4k AV receiver? Basically, something with the relevant video/audio codecs - and not much audio power. (because pre-outs will be used) - a bit like a pre-processor, which seem fairly uncommon. Trying to get...

    Rotel RMB 1095 - still worth buying considering the age?

    The entire reason I wont consider the brand again... even my receiver that was "fixed" by them came back with a hand written note that they won't fix it again. Cost me a grand in couriers only to have it die again for the same reason... on the same chip.

    Rotel RMB 1095 - still worth buying considering the age?

    If I recall - it was both our receivers that went at roughly the same time - that was the first of my repairs (under warranty) My last two repairs were done privately - on the first one, he said the SA agents never actually replaced the board, they just heated up the chip as per the youtube...

    Rotel RMB 1095 - still worth buying considering the age?

    My Onkyo receiver died - for the 3rd time last year -I have no interest repairing it again, and probably won't buy the brand again (SA support). I have a smaller (too small for the speakers, I tried) Denon receiver thats not being used, and have the option to purchase a used 1095 to pair with...

    FNB sheer incompetency - fraud case - cleaned bank accounts

    I had a thing with Investec a few years back where my card kept getting cloned somehow, they'd issue a new card - and within a week it was cloned. They eventually started issuing me with two cards at a time, with instructions of only using certain cards at certain retailers - to try and figure...

    Looks like the address configuration was causing the above issue - fairly smooth graph now.

    xrapidx system installed. Skipped load shedding.

    Installer is coming at 1:30pm to have a look at the battery issue, really was all over the place - seems to be when its in use. A bigger issue for me is I noticed because of this it keeps jumping between power sources, and whether its charging the batteries or not. I read through the battery...

    xrapidx system installed. Skipped load shedding.

    Noticed this morning, the Soc % is fine when the battery isn't being used - or when it's being discharged, but as soon as its receiving power it's all over the place. Jumping 20+% at times.

    Fixed with a filter, but will chat to installer on Monday.

    xrapidx system installed. Skipped load shedding.

    Not sure what they're configured as, will try figure it out. I've seen the same fluctuations on the inverter screen itself. I'm assuming that's seperate to solarman?

    xrapidx system installed. Skipped load shedding.

    Can anyone tell me if this sort of battery fluctuation is normal (top)? (I'm not sure how SOC is calculated - the voltage seems more steady)

    Wolla's Solar Hybrid Install

    Over hijacking: xrapidx system installed. Skipped load shedding.

    xrapidx system installed. Skipped load shedding.

    Question I do have, if the house currently has a draw of 900w, batteries are fully charged - and the power is coming from the panels - do the panels report the full potential production from solar, or does it only report what is being pulled for consumption? (solarman).
