    The 5ch Rotel RMB-1075 retails for $1599 AUD, but you should be able to pick one up new for around $1200 AUD or around $950 AUD secondhand on ebay or trading post etc.
    Bits of HT & 2ch Stuff: Rotel, Pro-ject, Oppo, Bel Canto, Elektra Audio, Benchmark, Panasonic, DSPeaker, Epson, Slim Devices, Belkin, Philips Pronto, Harmony, URC, Sennheisser, AKG, HTPC under development, KEF, Whatmough, Definitive Technology & Pardigm Signiture speakers

      Another suggestion!

      The Sony TA-N9000ES 5 channel amp.

      Now out of production, but has similar specs to the Rmb1075 @ 8 ohm.

      It retailed for $2150 and weighs in at around 25 kilos (55lbs ?) very heavy.

      It also has versatility, in that it can be run in 2 channel mode or can be bridged to run 2 x 210 watts. It also has extra 2 channel inputs so you can run a seperate 2 channel preamp as well as a home theatre processor.

      It can be had for around $750 Australian on ebay, and it is no slouch.

      In a comparison with my Rotel Rb990bx 2 x 200 watts, there is not a large difference with 2 channel and it can do home theatre as well!

      Check out the reviews at audio review website.

      It is not the worlds greatest amp but I reckon it is the best bang for the buck bargain out there at the moment.

      And "NO" I am not selling mine, unless I win lotto.

          100mill, are those ratings at 8 ohms?

          and does it run off 120 volt or 240 volts ?

          Oh and welcome to the forum.
