B&K AVR 507 S2 vs Rotel RSX 1067

[Hi-FiGuy06]

I want to upgrade my surround receiver, I'm currently using a Denon AVR-2803 with B&W DM602 S3 fronts, and a B&W LCR60 S3 center channel and my old Celestion S3 bookshelfs for the rear channels.

Which receiver delivers better sound quality in both 5.1 and 2-channel?
The B&K AVR 507 S2 or the Rotel RSX 1067 ??

Going to a Rotel site to see if most of the members favor Rotel over another brand? :rofl:

Both receivers are awesome. The B&K may have the edge in sound quality running your speakers. I have Installed both setups and favored the B7K over the Rotel running B&W speakers. But thats just a personal opnion. Yours could be different.

Feature wise the B&K blows the Rotel out of the water. It's fully packed with alot more ability. The Notch filter alone is worth it.

Really this is a pick it contest.Listen to both and find your answer. I would get the B&K receiver with your speakers, but I perfer Rotel with my speakers(Dynaudio).

I don't think these avrs are priced the same,that said I agree w/Dmantis.I'd get the BK if they were priced the same,I had a ref50II,quite a prepro.At the price however the Rotels are hard to beat.
