    Preamp section of RA-1062 vs. RC-1070

    Hello Rotel fans,

    Can anyone comment on the difference between the preamp section of RA-1062 (Integrated amp) versus RC-1070 (stereo pre-amp). I would think the RC-1070 to be better in performance when mated with a standalone amp instead of using the pre-outs of the RA-1062 and hooking the amp. I have the RA-1062 but since my Era Design 5 speakers are not that efficient I was planning on getting a separate amp. Since my thoughts were already going that way I was wondering whether I should let the RA-1062 go and get the RC-1070 instead. Any/all feedback will be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Tne RC-1070 is a very fine pre for the $$$ - I am not familiar with the RA-1062. A few write-ups/reviews of the RC-1070 I have read have stated the cost of the pre is worth the phonosection alone. I was very happy with my RC-1090 (Upgraded to RC-1090 and RB-1092). It is now in my BR system.

      Go from RC1070 to RC1090 or RC1082?
      by Jnorth1178
      I presently have the RC1070 and like it very much. Have the chance to get the discontinued RC1090 at good price. Will I see an appreciable sonic improvement in that upgrsde? Or, would you wait for the upcoming RC1082 and would anyone know at this point if the upgrade will mean better sound? I hear...

      Do they sound different from each other? The preamp will connect to an RB1070 and into Martin Logan Vantage.

      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...
