eric clapton unplugged, not the greatest recording but no one alive compares to clapton playing the guitar

the actual amp hums not the chassis or through the speakers, and it is constant

my tuner is a great source when i just want music in the backround so it gets the most use plus NY has good radio stations

the rotel 970 has a phillips cdm-9(?) transport which is supposed to be very good, so it should work fine, no need to upgrade unless you can here a real difference 
Coaxial or Optical
Do not run your video signal through the reciever it degrades it in every way, resolution, clairity etc. You also have to buy a second cable, so it is much better to run it straight to the tv 
CD Player Woes
I have a rotel 970 and have had no problems with it, but it still doesn't have a ton of use, hopefully it won't follow yours
