you really need to listen to both and make you own decision. You will get opinions from both angles. I can tell you I have been very happy with my RB-1092 driving my B&W N804. I won't look back - the size/performance ratio is what sold me.

All I know is that I'm selling mine real soon as it has been replaced (my silver 1090 that is). PM me if you want more info but I'm putting this up on the 'gon or on ebay soon.

Regardless of that sales speech, I will tell you that the 1090 is better than the 1092 to my ears. You can search for my review on this forum from a few months ago (or was it a year ago).

I agree... mine was a local pickup too.

Ecthelion better jump on my 1090 or he's missing out on a goooood deal. No shipping? No chance for UPS damage? Heck yeah... take my 1090! It doesnt make a difference for me too much as I'm the seller. But if I were the buyer, I'd go local for sure. :P

Can't help but to chip in a bit.

I was comparing ICEpowered amps for a while and I think Rotel RB1092 is a good buy. If I look into Bel Canto Ref1000 mono block prices or Jeff Roland's, I can only say they basically uses the same 1000ASP modules except that the wires that are use to connect the modules are different. So I am really thinking of diving into the RB1092. I believe you will not hear much differences between the Bel Canto ref1000 and the Rotels which cost less.
