    RSP-985 What is it worth?

    I am buying a complete HT package, and a few of the things I wont be needing.

    I have to decide if I want to keep the rotel processor and use it in another room, or just get rid of it. From my understanding this is an older unit.

    Anyone have any idea of what it is worth?

    Thanks

      Well it sounds better then the 1066, as does just about as much. If you haven't had any issues with DTS, that means it has the latest firmware chip. Just throwing out a number, I would say about $350-500??

          As long as some prices are getting thrown out, what do you think an RSX-972 or an RB-980BX should fetch? I don't want to pay to see the "blue book" on Audiogon. I'm cheap. :B

              Rotel RSX-972 / RB980BX combo (review)
              by Gdbeck
              Great Budget Combo....
              I used to be a stero junkie, must have owned 25-30 different stereo systems always looking for that perfect sound. That was until I found Rotel and specifically the RB980BX poweramp (which goes ever so well with my Newform Research Ribbon speakers). This setup met all...

              Marantz AV560U to Rotel RSP985. Is the side step worth it
              by ht_addict
              Currently I have the Marantz AV560U pre/pro but have the oportunity to get a Rotel RSP985(for $800CDN) if I can sell my pre. Would it be worth it even though I'm going from one DD/DTS pre to another. Figure it would cost me $100-200 out of pocket if I sell mine(Checkout out Pawnshop for ad). Would love...

              Is it worth upgrading from Rotel RSP985 and RMB985?
              by catzilla
              hi,

              i am wondering if it is worth upgrading from my current amplification.
              My system contains B&W 2*804,HTM1,2*805 and 850 for sub.
              My pre amp is a Rotel RSP-985 and RMB 985 poweramp.
              From my knowing Rotel is no high end but gives a lot of value for its price....

              Help in setting Speaker dimension on RSP985
              by htmad
              I am new to the Rotel world, I have recently bought a RSP985, accompanied by what in my opinion is a very poor manual. Everything is still to be connected together (I am waiting for a HT room to be made available), so I didn't go yet through the ultimate step: try and hear...
