    Cinema Grand & Rsx1056 Or Sunfire Ultimate II?

    I've been contemplating adding a sunfire cenema grand (5x 200) to my rotel rsx1056.Lately i found a sunfire ultimate II receiver which i slightly more expensive than the sunfire amp.Between these 2 options that i have which in your opinions would be the best or smartest option.Replace the rotel w/sunfire rec. or just add the amp.Thanks

    While I have no direct opinion, I've changed the title to hopefully get more response.

      Unless you are unhappy with your Rotel receiver, just add the amp. You can keep your amp through all other changes to your system.

        I agree. :T
        And you get a better upgrade path to a dedicated pre-pro later if ever you feel like it.
        I used to have a Marantz SR6300 reciever functioning as a pre/pro. When I upgraded to the Rsp 1068, the sound just opened up. I did not realize how constrained the sound was with the old 6300. :E

          Sunfire Ultimate vs Rotel RSP-1098
          by dali
          Hello!

          I have a RSP 1066 and a RMB 1066 since about 18 months back. On another forum I saw a thread about Sunfire Ultimate Receiver and it looks sweet, 7x200W and just about all formats you can need. The price (in the US) seems to be around $3200, only about $300 more than a RSP 1098...

          OK...call me dizzy, but maybe I've changed my mind (again)

          I've got the Rotel RB-1075 amp on it's way to me now. I plan on getting another Rotel 2 channel amp later on. (probably the 991 or 1080) So I'm trying to decide on a processor to go with these amps. At first I thought I'd simply...

          1098 vs. Sunfire
          by PiDD
          I had tunnel vision for the 1098 then a trip to the store and a good price on a Sunfire made me go hhhmmmmmm. Before this it was pure 1098 with
          Anthem causing a slight distraction (I have to do more investigation with Anthem)

          So I hop on the net and do a few searches on Sunfire...
