I'm so relieved! My new RMC-1L solved the noise issue that's been nagging at me like a pebble in my shoe. I've put so much into my home theater for so many years, and it was really grating on me that my old setup had a low-level noise issue that made listening to classical music or even quiet scenes in movies just not enjoyable. And I'm not talking about hiss. It was probably interference from a microprocessor inside the AV receiver. It would spit and sputter. Had it actually been as steady as hiss, I might have been able to live with it.
With the RMC-1L, the noise floor is so low, I have to put my ear right next to a speaker to even hear a faint hiss. From my seat... silence. I can't tell you how excited I am to use my home theater again! I just wanted to share a big THANK YOU to the people at Emotiva.
For those curious, my prior setup was a high-end AV receiver (I'm reluctant to share the brand since I might have just had a lemon), with an XPA-7 Gen 3 amp. I actually bought the XPA-7 to resolve a distortion issue I was hearing on the AV receiver when playing piano music. But I think the higher gain of the XPA-7 revealed more issues with the receiver.
