    Change faceplates on an RB-1092?

    Just got a great deal on a RB-1092, but it came in black and my other Rotel gear is silver.

    How much would it cost to get a silver replacement faceplate and how difficult would it be to take off the black one and replace it with a silver one?

    Thanks.

    And the power button? Do you want it black too?

      Depends how difficult it would be to change the button. But I could live with a black button if that would be a tough change (and I'm guessing it sould be). I can live with the black face for that matter, but if it's an easy fix then it woud be worth it to match the rest of my stuff.

          Never tried that one before. I'd suggest to get hands on a broken unit first and try it out yourself... ebay maybe?

              i had a black rb 1090 before there was silver. when the silver came out i wanted to change my faceplate to the new color. i called rotel and i was told that rotel will only sell you the faceplate that was issued with the serial number on the unit, they will not allow you to change the original color.
              that's good for rotel but bad for the tweakers.

                I guess that answers that.

                Thanks for the info.

                    ok, now you got me curious again (but it might be a lot of hassle for nothing)....

                    does anyone know how much a silver faceplate would cost and how hard/easy it is to install?
