    Rotel RMB1095. MKI vs MKII

    A friend is looking for the RMB1095. He found one from a guy closer to where I leave and he asked me to go check it out. I had the same amp before and I know there were 2 versions. Most obvious difference being the binding posts, 12v trigger and that MKII was available in black or silver and black. Are there any Internal and sonic differences between the two. The other issue is that this MKI is being sold at the same price as the MKII. Would you expect the MKI to sell cheaper than the MKII?

    Thanks guys. I'll appreciate to hear from you.

      I don't think the differences were ever documented. I think you have covered what I can think of being the differences. Obviously the MKII should be slightly more expensive being the newer model and more functional in terms of the trigger as well as the better binding posts, but by how much is questionable, especially since the original came out almost 15 years ago.

        I was asking this on behalf of Juggy. He asked me to go look at a 1095 in Pretoria and when I spoke to the seller on the phone I realized that his was an MKI. He is selling at the price that most MKIIs are selling for which I think is a bit on the U fair side. Whats interesting with you responding is that I had asked Juggy to pm you about this

          Difference RB-985 and RB-985 MKII
          by silvestro
          I have the opportunity to buy a RB 985 for £340. What is the difference between this model and the RB985 MKII and is the price I have been offered on the MKI reasonable?

          I've just assembled a system, consisting of using a denon 3805, running preouts to an rb1090 and a rmb1095 ( unbalanced).

          I am only getting weak sound out of the main right and left front but nothing out of the other five speakers which are connected to the Rmb1095.

          by capall
          Hi,
          I'm considering the RA1570 Integrated DAC/Amp for a 2 channel setup, and possibly to combine it with a AVR for a 5.1 setup in the future. 2ch though is my main priority. My budget is under $2k and have a pair of B&W 683 speakers

          However, does anyone have any feedback on how...
