    What's going on?

    I've heard rumors that Rotel is planning some big changes in product lineups and market direction. Has anyone else?

      I think Rotel should give up the Ballance design concept

      In flagship 1098, they should not use bad relays, bad OPA 5532, mediocre Tl 072C,...
      ......

      Rotel is exellent bulletproof cover but horrible parts inside

        More exclusive and potentially more expensive.

          It seems that would interfere with B&W Groups total marketing scheme. Rotel = more entry level; Classe' = more exclusive, expensive. I, for one, am happy witht he current 2 channel offerings from Rotel. I am not a 5-channel/surround sound/home cinema lover.

            I don't know any details so I can't elaborate but my rep told me there are big announcements coming at CEDIA. We will all know in a few more weeks.

              Precisely my curiosity.

                by saurabh
                hi,

                Pls see my room layout attchd with dimensions. The height of my room is 9.5 ft and I cannot change the layout much except for bringing the TV to the left slightly so that its more in line of sight with the Sofa. I will leave 20%(as suggested by an acoustic engineer) of the total length...

                I'm a piddler and into diy car audio. I've messed with pro stuff, but HT is sort of new to me. I've got a diy HT sub powered by a Crate pro amp. I also have a set of polk M30's for mains and polk cs1 for a center. These are powered with an older technics sa-ax540. My Sony DVD player handles decoding...

                Taking my HT seating in a new direction
                by Gremal
                I've been using a black leather loveseat that I bought about 12 years ago and it has survived six moves and countless beverage spills and other mishaps. It's grungy and not as supportive of my lower back as it was when I bought it. I've been thinking about replacing it for a while now, but it took me...
