    RB-1090 seems to veil high frequencies ???

    Anybody who heard or who owns the RB-1090 noticed veiled high frequencies ? After changing my speakers, my CD player, I'm down to the last 2 possible causes that seem to veil my high frequencies : My RB-1090 amp, or my Arcam FMJ C31 preamp. I posted same question on Arcam forum, and here I'm doing same for the amp to try and find out which. Thanks.

    I installed a 1090 (on loan from a V good freind) in my system about two months ago, replacing recently factory refurbished 200 wpc RB-990. If anything, the HF are resolved with greater accuracy, clarity and what I will call 'shimmer'.

        Check your pre. That amp should force even marginal speakers to cough up some decent highs.

          Glad you are enjoying the 1090 Bill!!!! :T

          Though I'm afraid soon here I'll be needing it back. Maybe in another month or two. But I have a 1080 that you can use until you get yours. 8)

            What! Uh? I can’t hear you!
            The 1090 is running.
            Did you say something?
