Hello.
Just noticed this forum the other day. Great idea and people seem very knowledgeable.
I am upgrading to a Rotel system. Last week I purchased the RB 1090 amp to drive my PSB Stratus Golds. It is a great amp which sounds wonderful and looks great in silver. It reminds me of one of the bigger silver Classe amps (at a considerably lower cost). I currently use a receiver as the peamp and I just know its holding back the 1090 from its full potential. I have the RSP 1066 and an RMB 1075 on order to round out my HT system and to drive a pair of speakers in a second room.
Unfortunately I am getting a buzzing noise (ground loop?) from the amp with both just the speakers connected and the whole system connected. When putting my ear up to the amp it sounds as quiet as any other good amp. I have had other good amps in my system (Anthem, Sim Audio) without any noise. I have tried swapping interconnects and plugging into a seperate circuit but the noise persists.
I don't believe the amp is mechanically faulty so I am wondering how to fix this. I noticed another forum member who posted that he had a similar problem with his RMB 1095.
I would appreciate any possible solutions people might have.
Once I get my 1066 connected I will give you my impressions on how the system stacks up.
Thanks alot
Brent
