Need to replace my Rotel RMB-1095 . suggestions pls
I'd look into getting the Rotel repaired.  If it's not possible or too expensive, I'd take a look at the Emotiva line of amplifiers.  I had a RMB-1095 and still have an Emotiva XPA-5 Gen II.  Both are fine for home theater and I'd describe them as...

Cowboy Junkies - The Trinity Session

Listening to Nektar - Sounds like this on Tidal this morning.  Also Drift Episode 4 "Space" from Underworld on Tidal.  Speaking of bass, I had to put on the headphones to keep from waking up my neighbors.
