Rotel 20 series

[Mikael]

I have heard a rumour that Rotel are going to reveal their new 20 series at CES? can anybody confirm that?

[joetama]

I'll let you know if I see them at CES...

what month's CES?

January 5th I believe. If they do show some 20 series stuff, I would imagine it would be at least a year away.

I wonder if they will change the faceplates, hope not. But I guess thats part of a new series.

[Kevin D]

If it equals the improvement from the 900 series to the 10 series, I'm all over it.

I also don't hope they change the faceplate,but i been told that it will be the same guy who designed the new B&W diamond signature speaker. So it might be something round maybe?

[mike c]

i hope they don't do any drastic changes in the face plate too ... i'm hoping to afford a pre-amp in a year or two to match my amp (thanks Kevin for the info)

errr. i have to make a comment that the new diamond speakers look like trash cans. first time i saw the pics, i thought it was a hoax.

Hello, my first Post. :later:

Will the 20 Series replace the 10 or is it placed at an higher price?

20 series do I feel Blu-ray coming.......... wouldn't that be nice . I would imagine that the 20 series comes in addition to the 10 series on a higher level, to fall between current 10 series and Classe.

While it's nice to theorize, the 20 series is just a rumor at this point. My rep didn't mention anything about it when I talked with him last week. They could show some concept items, or it may be a big surprise for everyone.

So at this point no one knows anything about it, and it quite possible might not exist. Rumors for a brand new RSP-1099 have been going for two years now..
