    RB-985 MKII - A good amp?

    I found a used Rotel RB-985 MKII 5-channel amp. Is this a good amp to get? Is $550 a fair price? According to the ad it's 120 watts/channel, no other specs listed. I know amps don't really evolve much so if it's old that shouldn't be a problem, unless there's something about this model that isn't good (the sound, performance, reliability, etc).

    Any thoughts?

      The MKII is very similar to the 1075 in looks and power and would be a good used purchase if its in good condition.

          I corrected the model # in my post, it's RB-985 MKII, not RMB-985.

          It seems to have mostly positive reviews on AudioReview. A negative is it doesn't seem to have a 12 volt trigger. Also, I woulnd't mind 6 or 7 channels instead of just 5.

          I'll have to sleep on it.

              The model is 110 watts per channel. My friend has it and loves it.
