The description of the 1070 matches my experience with the 1075, except I didnt even feel like I had analytical. And yet the new 1585 has slam, warmth, and all kinds of dynamics. It is a lively and fun amp with good punch. I agree Rotel spent a few years making some poorly received amps and misguidedly implementing class-D into their traditional line-up, but they have gone back to class AB in most of their amps, so i think it is hard to judge the new stuff based on the past. Each piece of equipment should probably be judged on its own merits and not with blanket statements.
Any Rotel love around here? Looking to power my Sonus Faber Olympica 3
Looking to power my Sonus Faber Olympica 3.
I am going to use these speakers in my family room, my wife really wants me to complete this system soon so we can play christmas music and she can finally watch TV with some good sound.
I am looking at possibly Rotel power for this.
Either the integrated solution:
Rotel RA1592
Or going separates:
Rotel RC1570 or RC1590 preamp
Rotel RB1582mk2 or RB1590 amp.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
