kjl,

1070 used to sell for $899. The difference between it and the Rotel seems to be more like 44%, pretty significant, percent-wise. I know, you said "the difference in $".

The DVI switching is not that big of a deal. A set of HDMI-DVI adaptors ($10 total from Monoprice) made the cables absolutely transferrable, thus no problem there.

I totally agree that the net difference doesn't make up for the quirks, hence the very title of this thread wink , but, apparently, not everybody seems to have been hit by the bugs, thus there is a community of happy 1070 owners out there.

And something else, which I forgot to add to my post although I intended to add. Rotal is not a true 7 channel receiver, has only 5 power amps in there.

I wonder how the ADCOM GFR-700 compares, SQ-wise, as it can be found for $1000 on eBay, brand new.

Did anyone have a chance to try it?
