    Recommended Rotel Store in Melbourne?

    I'm trying to find out the opinions of the Melbourne/Australia members about their experiences with Rotel dealers, both pricewise and level of customer support. To put simply, who will not rip you off and/or charge you a fortune.

    I'm actually interested in buying an RMB-1095 (I have heard all pros and cons, and will take a dive), one guy (that I did NOT like one bit) actually told me that they solved the humming problem in 1095 by clipping off the earth pin ( 8O :wtf: ).
    Let me just say that i walked out of the shop straight away. I mean, house burns down, you think insurance will cover me after firebrigade tells them that i run 1kW+ appliance with no earth? (not saying will happen, probably not even remote chance, but...)

    As already mentioned by other member, i absolutely love the internet, so many people sharing opinions, helping eachother.... Also, the people like Andrew Pratt ;x( and Aussie Geoff ;x( (local boy, absolutely marvelous for that reason, never gave short answer on PM!) for all the effort!

    Thanks in advance! And be gentle to the first-timer. oke:

    Please!

      I'm from Melbourne. Klapp and Frankston hi-fi were both very good with discussions I had with them about Rotel and pricing. I wouldn't go near E-Home or Encel.

        Some units have earth connection, others don't
        by Asterduc
        Got a question that kept me busy some time.

        This topic goes about Earth looping problems on european units delivered with a Shuko power cable connector.

        The power plug / connector on my RSX-1056 is missing the "middle Pin" which in fact is the Earth connector....

        Review of Sithlord's Rotel 1098
        by BladeRnR
        Hello all. I'm Sithlord's Brother (Older) and I'm so impressed with the Rotel 1098 I must impress upon you (I doubt I need to do that anyway) just how good this Processor is.

        Earth connection in Rotel components
        by pbarata
        Why Rotel components like RSP-1066/68/98, RCD-1070/72 and RMB-1075 don't have the earth connector on power cords/back socket?

        Compared to other manufacturers, like Arcam, NAD, all of them use earth connection in their designs. Is there any advantages doing so?

        A View into the Rotel 15 Series Class D Amps
        by =AirCeej=
        During the process of putting another HT together, I began auditioning amps to replace a Sunfire Series 1 Load Invariant and an Anthem MCA20 – noteworthy at the respective price points in their day and for the Sunfire: novel. Appreciating the ideas and most of the execution designed into the Sunfire,...
