Andreas R Deputy Gunslinger Registered: 01/10/07 Posts: 2	Hi, I'm a current 1050 owner thinking of upgrading for the video switching capabilities. I have had problems with the volume control on my 1050 since the beginning. I was curious to know how the volume knob feels on the 1070? Is it heavy and smooth or light feeling? One of the things that irks me about most mid range receivers is the big plastic hollow feeling knob. Might seem like a trivial thing to most, but it matters to me. Thanks for your input. Andreas

If it really matters to you that much, then you might have issues with the 1070. Granted it doesn't cause me problems controlling the volume. _________________________ Model 1070 Toshiba HD-A35 & Pioneer BDP-51 Tivo Series 3 Elite 50" / Aquos 32" Squeezebox Radio Stereo Setup: NAD C326BEE (50Wx2) Elite DV-47Ai Universal SACD/DVD-A Citypulse DA7.2x II + TXCO DAC B&W 685s JL Fathom F112 Denon AH-D2000 Headphones

Sound on the Yamaha was a bit light compared to the 1070... I have no problem whatsoever adjusting the volume...I hardly ever touch it anyway... _________________________ Outlaw 1070-Mirage M-290(main)+MCC(center)+Omnisat Micro(sides) nanosat(back)+ +PS12-90(sub)-Technics SL-5 turtable+Cambridge Audio 540P-HTPC - SamsungDTB-H260F HDTV tuner - Optoma HD 20 +100' Draper screen -lots of spaghetti and toys
