I have to say, the black finish looks much better than the silver. The silver looks like a hideous krell knockoff.

Good looking stuff, but I can barely see the black components in this video. The RMB-1575 (5x250 watt) looks like an interesting piece, and fills a big void that existed in the previous Class D amp lineup.Brad -
I also think that the black finish looks a lot better than the silver one. And you are so right when you say they look like a Krell knockoff.I just hope that the black is a real black and not the same brown black as the current 10 series.Comment

Hi StyleOriginally posted by style
I don't think they are replacing the "new/old" RB1092 with the new RB1572.There will be some new stereo product in the 15 series in the 1.st quater in 2009.Comment

So do those new devices do audio processing through the HDMI? Or no?
Interested in seeing the two channel stuff I guess.
Plus, maybe it is just me or maybe I have a bad idea with Class D. But as soon as I hear "Class D" I lose a lot of interest...-JoeComment

All of the new 15 Series do audio processing through HDMI. The only piece from the 10 Series that didn't was the RSX-1057 and that isn't being replaced. All of the 15 Series now decode all available formats as well (Dolby TrueHD on down and dtsHD Master Audio on down).Originally posted by joetama
That will be next year. The plan is to show the new 15 Series stereo components at CES in January.Originally posted by joetama

. The class D amps sound very good. One of my coworkers has an RMB-1085 now that replaced an RMB-1075 in his system and it's better. The image is more focused and the soundstage is bigger without adding brightness. The mid bass is faster and more detailed. It's a better amp overall. Don't be afraid of class D, don't be afraid of class D, don't be afraid.......

Well, if you listen to the class A/B and class D side-by-side immediately after the other on the same materials then you can probably tell a difference. I do not think either is better or worse, they just sound slightly different, and the difference is hard to put into words.Originally posted by joetama
However, once they are in your listening room you ears will adapt to them quickly. I now have class D for all channels, and I think my subwoofers (PV1) are class D as well. Overall I think it is very high quality sound and I am enjoying it a lot. I am not sure if the class A/B amps will make me happier, but I am sure they will take up much more room, generate much more heat, and costs me dearly in my electricity bill.Comment

I have to say that I love the sound of my class D power amp RB1072,so much that I traded in my old RB1090.The RB1072 has a warmer and more musical sound than the old a/b amps from Rotel. IMOComment
