    1062 and cdm 7nt

    Excellent website. I am so glad to find it.

    I am powering my B&W 7nt speakers with a 1062 integrated. A friend of mine over for a listen suggested that i was underpowered. I've been given advice to add a RB 1070 amp. Is this really necessary to get the best 2 channel sterio sound or is the 1062 enough? Would addition of the amp bypass the powersupply of the integrated and effectively make it a preamp? I read the hi-fi award review of the 1062 posted on the rotel website and it said the unit was powerful enough for most speakers.

    Thanks for any advice.

    I've really enjoyed my 7NT being powered by a 1080. I'd say a standalone stereo amp will get the best out of your speakers. I would pick a 1080 over a 1070, which I'm sure is not bad by any means, if you can.

      RA-1062 or RA-1070?
      by ANWKLO
      I have a receiver with pre-out for front speakers. I am planning to buy an integrated amp RA-1062 or RA-1070. Are there any input for my receiver to connect with the integrated amp? There is no main-in input of RA-1062/RA-1070. Someone told me the receiver pre-out can be connected with the AUX input...

      Preamp section of RA-1062 vs. RC-1070
      by Jamil
      Hello Rotel fans,

      Can anyone comment on the difference between the preamp section of RA-1062 (Integrated amp) versus RC-1070 (stereo pre-amp). I would think the RC-1070 to be better in performance when mated with a standalone amp instead of using the pre-outs of the RA-1062 and hooking...

      RA-1062 or RA-1070 for B&W 703 ?
      by jim777
      I consider buying B&W speakers and a Rotel integrated. If I go for the 703 or the 704, should I choose the RA-1062 or the stronger RA-1070 (but that doesn't seem to be as appreciated as the 1062). Thanks!

      I have a pair of CDM 7NT's, which I opted to purchase instead of the new 704's or 703's because: (i) I thought that the midrange sounded superior to the new 700's and (ii) because the...

      CDM 9NT v. CDM 7NT
      by gostan
      I currently have 7nt's for fronts and 1 nt's for rears. I have an opportunity to purchase either a pair of used 7nt's or 9nt's. I could then use the 1nt's in my second zone. My existing stereo-ht room is too small for 7.1, but I would then be ready for 7.1 in the future. The 7's have a nice laid back...
