    RC-960BX vs RC-1070 Preamps

    Hi,
    Which is better old school or current rotel gear? Im interested in either the older RC-960BX or the latest RC-1070 Preamp, I am more interested is sound quality, it will be mated to a RB-1080 running Dynaudio 52's.

      Great speaker choice!!! :T

      Some advice....be ultra careful when choosing the pre-amp; Dynaudios get better with higher-end gear - (heard Meridian gear on 52SE's and Rotels on 52SE's and it is significantly different in favor of the Meridian - accuracy, depth, soundstage).....I'll look at something other than the Rotel range of pre-amps......but I'd say the RC-1070.....however....."I'd say"......is just that, because I have not heard the RC-960BX...
      Regards :T,

          Q re Pre-amp sections of RA1062 and RC1070
          by ds22030
          I am disassembling my HT system and going back to a receiver for HT. I am using the various components (including my main speakers and RB-1080) for a separate 2-channel music system....this means I need a good 2 channel pre-amp.

          Does anyone know if the pre-amp sections of RA1062 and...

          Halo JC 3 -- a step up from previous phono preamps in my system
          by Burke Strickland
          A while back on this forum in a discussion about the Halo JC 1 power amps & JC 2 BP preamp that I am enjoying in my 2 channel music system, Chris D predicted that the next hi-fi component I would buy is the JC 3 phono preamp. At the time I wasn’t sure that was in the cards. I recognized its...

          2 Preamps to single amp?
          by macwrede
          Is it possible to connect 2 prepros to the same amp? Could I run the outputs from an RC-1070 and the front L&R from a RSP-1068 to an RB-1080 for the front speakers and use an RMB-1075 for the center and surrounds? Is there anything to be gained (or lost) by using the RC-1070 for 2-channel audio...

          The ultimate high end thread - (includes Meridian's $65K DSP8000) - (pics)
          by btf1980
          Spent my sunday afternoon in Stereo Exchange with some vinyl/audiophile buds, had my camera with me.

          We started off with the Sooloos wireless system, hooked up to Meridian's DSP8000. Are you sitting down? Good. The DSP8000 is $65,000. Next to the DSP8000 is the Sonus Faber Amatis, a relative...
