I am in the process of upgrading my N804s to N803s, and at about the same time I want to add a pre to my RCD-1072 and RB-1080. The question is, I am a loudspeaker guy and will not use the headphone feature on RC-1090, nor will I be using the balanced connections.
One reason for this post is because my guy at the Audio Store (who is really a good guy) has basically told me that he wouldn’t buy the RC-1090 over the 1070 w/o the Phono requirement.
So the question is, what would you guys do? I know the 1070 will be an upgrade over my Yamaha RX-V1400, so that isn’t the issue… If anyone has done a side-by-side with these two I’d like to hear about it.
Oh, and yes, I know, I will be trying it out in my house – these guys will let me take whatever I want home… just looking for some opinions
Cheers,
Keith
