    RB1092 - RMB1077. something in between?

    with the new 1,2 and 7 channel Rotel D-amplifiers coming out, will they release anything in between that?
    I would like to see a 3 or 5 channel amp.

    I have a descent 2 channel amp (Classe CA-401) that powers my B&W802s, but my center channel and surround are powered by an ancient Denon receiver, fine for the surrounds but a HTM-1 needs a bit more juice.
    I could get myself a RB1091 for the center speaker, but if Rotel would have a 5 channel amp I could get rid of the Denon all together.

    I'm not thinking they are going 5.1, I think they are sticking to 7.1 systems as the future...

    Though I wouldn't put it past them...just don't see it happening. The only thing I'd be concerned about is I think you want the same things powering your front three speakers, it will create a better seemless soundstage with them. You will notice the different type of amplifciation between the center and main speakers. I'd say find another Classe mono-block to power your center and be done with it.
    Digital Audio makes me Happy.

      Center channel idea
      by richh
      I've got the dreaded "center channel needs to fit into a cubby hole in an entertainment center that we just bought" dilema. The space for the center channel is about 15" wide by 9" tall by 17" deep. The entertainment center is built like a bookcase so the cubby hole is more...

      by Azeke
      Hello everyone.

      After approximately 3 weeks of ownership, here are my quick preliminary thoughts of the RB-1080 upgrade:

      1) After 2 weeks of tweaking, my soundstage has increased in both stereo and HT, and I now appreciate 2 channel music much more, marked improvement in...

      RMB1077 and RSX1057 system
      by bullitt731
      I was planning on using an RSX1057 as a processor with an RMB1077 hooked up to a pair of B&W 804s and a HTM3s. Orignally I thought I would biamp and biwire the L and R fronts using 4 channels of the RMB1077 while using the remaining 3 channels to drive the center and back surrounds.
