Rotel’s 1056 with the B&W’s Model-705

[Zohar]

Hi,

I would like to ask for your experience support.

I’m planning to buy a system that will give me the benefit of the two worlds with high sound quality (fine audio-2 channel and multi channel for home theater).
My current speakers are the newest B&W’s Model-705, does the Rotel’s 1056 Surround Sound Receiver its good enough to-drive the 705 speakers?
In addition 70% of the times I’m listening to music, should I buy a 2-channel power unit to connect to the 1056 for better quality?
Please advise.

Absolutely, you should purchase a separate power amp for the front channels, if you are into music.

Just my monies worth,

yeah, even I have been advised to get a separate ROTEL 1080 (200W per channel) amp for my Nautilus 805's, even though I own the ROTEL 1075 Power Amp (120W per channel, which is what my speakers are rated at 50-120W) - the 705's and 805's are very close in power requirements, and design...I think that you should read "Rotel 10xx Equipment Cold Sounding/no Mids?" on this forum - there are some very good explanations there!
