Anyone have this problem with the volume control when turned in either direction will increase the volume! The remote volume control still works OK.

This is one of several 1050 'bugs' that add personality to the device. Welcome aboard. Fortunately the mute switch DOES work.

I haven't seen that, but I'm going to tag onto this thread.

Does anyone have a problem with their remote where occasionally only one command goes through. For example if I'm pushing the volume button multiple times it will ignore the 2nd push on until I stop - wait for the red led on the remote to flash 3 times then I can send another command. This doesn't seem to happen all the time but 50% of the time.

Try replacing the batteries in the remote. My remote was doing something similiar and with new batteries the problem went away.

I also have never experienced any issue with my volume control. Then again, I do usually use the remote. (Lazy, I guess. )

Yes, I have. I don't know about yours, but mine doesn't want to change volume via the dial any too quickly, up a little, down a little.

Obviously, this was another part of the 1050 subject to a thoughtful design process and substantial testing. When I compare the Outlaw 1050 with my previous Yamaha receiver or my original separates, it reminds me more and more of an English sportscar, whose excentricities need to be accepted with a certain amount of besotted amusement.

Couldn't have put it any better.

I had the same problem and mailed the receiver back to be fixed. Came back just fine!

I've had this problem for about 9 months on my 1050. Shipping it back is quite a hassle so I've lived with just using the remote. If the remote dies then I'm in big trouble!!

I sent mine back for repair and it's fine now. Just a bit peeved that I had to spend $50 for shipping to repair a known defect. Be nice if the outlaws would split the shipping.

I too spent the $50 dollars to have it fixed. The returned unit worked fine for a while, then showed the same behavior. I am a little ticked. What is the problem. Are the pots of such poor quality, or is there some software problem? Might this be fixed by somehow rebooting the unit?
