    Dropped my RB-1080

      "The term "audiophile" means essentially nothing -- it's a self-anointed status that entails no credentials, qualifications or certifications. It means "hobbyist," nothing more, and anyone can lay claim to it. Ironically, I've come to recognize that "audiophiles" represent a group that will believe almost anything"

                                  Question about adding a second amp to my RMB1075
                                  by nash
                                  I've currently got an RMB1075 and an RSP1066 with Definitive Technology speakers. I've ordered some new towers for the main L/R (Def Tech 7001SC's) which should be a considerable upgrade from my current towers (Def Tech ProTower 400's). I am going to move my ProTower 400's to the rear.

                                  my RB1080 died a few weeks back - the old no left channel trick!!
                                  I am local in Melbourne and dropped it off to International Dynamics in Richmond. I explaind to them what Aussie Geoff had gone through with them personally, as I am sure many of you all have in your various...

                                  by wernert
                                  I am considering to complement my existing RMB1075 with a RB1080 which will be used to drive the front speakers. I demoed the RB1070 a while ago, but it was not much an improvement on the existing RMB1075 in 2 channel mode. The RB1080 is definitely the one for me. After reading several articles in...

                                  Hi

                                  I have heard that this is the best forum to talk Rotel.

                                  I am thinking of buying an used Rotel RB991 to add to my HT setup. I will use the pre-out of my Denon AVR 3805 to connect to the power amp to drive my Dynaudio Audience 82 speakers.

                                  I have heard comments...

                                  I just got home from picking up my Wharfedale Evolution 10 speakers (in glossy piano black), which will be used as rear speakers in my Home theater; matched up with the Wharfedale Opus 2. Which by the way still haven't arrived and probably won't for another month or so.
