Welcome Tiptel
I'm a little confused about what you're looking for. Do you want a Stereo only system? Or a 5.1 system that could also play stereo? Just for your information too, the 1066 has been discontinued and replaced with the 1068 unless you're planning to buy used. Otherwise the RB-1070 is only a 2-channel amplifier will not allow you to play 5.1 soundtracks where as the RMB-1066 is a 6-channel amp allowing you to utilize 6.1 decoding or bi-amp or bridge 3-channels but likley wouldn't perform as well in pure stereo listening. (I would recommend bi-amping over bridging). If you want/need only a 2-channel system you'll be best off with the RB-1070 and either the RC-1070 or RC-1090 stereo pre-amps. Or the RX-1060 stereo receiver. Otherwise if you can purchase an RSP-1066 (or 1068 ) and a RMB-1066 and a RB-1070 you could power your mains with the RB-1070 and bi-amp your centre and surrounds with the RMB-1066 and have the best of both worlds.
Hope that was helpful

Hi all
A long time ago I bought a RSP970 pre-amp and RB985 5x100 power-amp, which I have used for a while and been pretty happy with.
However the pre-amp didn't do do anything digital or proper 5.1 surround, so I decided to upgrade it. I found on ebay someone who was selling... -
I am a little confused about the RMB-1066. Judging by its name it should be the intended match to the RSP-1066. However, no single post I have found mentioning the RMB-1066. All owners of the RSP-1066 seem to use a RMB-1075.
Even Rotel lists its power-amplifier in the cateogry of "Distribution... -
Does anyone know how the RMB1066 when BRIDGED will be compared to the 985 mkII? I am thinking of using this amp in this mode to power my L/R/C. Will it be a step down from the 985 mkII? I currently use the 985 to bi-amp my front L and R channels. The Centre is bi-amp between my RSX972 and 985. The rears... -
I have been considering a project to build a set of studio monitors for my Mac G5 which has optical Toslink SPDIF audio input/outputs. If possible I would like to biamp a set of nearfield monitor which I would build using possibly Audio Technologies/Hiquphon or HDS Exclusive/Hiquphon or SEAS drivers.... -
I recently was listening to the DENON 3805 (...having good test reports on surround sound) but disappointing :cry: me a lot in stereo.
I feel that either you pay for dozens of buttons, plugs and effects OR for pure sound quality in stereo. I am looking for something with only a few...
