    RB-991 Amp?

    Hello All,

    I'm currently using a RB-985mkii 5 channel amp with a RSP-1068 processor. If I add this RB-991 to the main speakers, would this help or hurt? Paradigm Ref. Studio 100's V2 are my main speakers. I'll use the 985 for 3 channels only.

      As an aficionado of the 9 series amps, I have to say, get the 991. I am sure you will find an improvement in detail, speed, transient response and LF crispness. Plus, all your amps will be of the same family which will preserve coherence and character when in multi-channel mode. JMHO.

              I hope you like it!
              Did you get to try it out before you bought it?
              Let us know what you think of it after you have a while to listen.

              Oh, and all the best with that EAGALEs thing.:W
              You guys gave NE a tough game. :T

                  RB991/RB1080 for Dyn Audience 82
                  by Belgarath99
                  Hi

                  I have heard that this is the best forum to talk Rotel.

                  I am thinking of buying an used Rotel RB991 to add to my HT setup. I will use the pre-out of my Denon AVR 3805 to connect to the power amp to drive my Dynaudio Audience 82 speakers.

                  I have heard comments...

                  rsx1067 vs rsp1068/rb993/rb985mkII
                  by JRambo
                  Hi, I recently read in a home-theater magazine that the Rotel rsx1067 was their first choice in the heavy-receiver class.. How will this receiver compare to a setup with rsp1068, rb993 and rb985mkII, when it comes to sound quality, as the price for these two setups will be about the same..

                  rb985+rb991 would these match
                  by mickyboy
                  hi all having done a bit of "reasearch into older rotel power amps"
                  will soon recieve rb 985 5 channel amp, and was in the future thinking of buying rb 1080 to power front channels for av/sterio duties,
                  have know noticed there is older models avaliable ie rb991 (200watts)...

                  Klipsch RF3 & Rotel RB991
                  by ALS
                  Dear Freinds,

                  What's your opinion on Klipsch RF3 & Rotel RB991 power + RC1070 pre. Source as NAD 541i. I found the sound from above combo is bright & loud & not very balanced. My feeling is RB991 may be too much power (200rms/ch) for RF3s, since it's a high efficiency speaker...
