Rotel RX-(X)02 ReceiverS

I still have (in storage) a 202, which we sude in the bedroom until this yr driving Audiosphere 2's, and used an 802 from new in my main systemfor many years.

Then I had a used 1602, Rotel's super rcvr, it WAS better still.

But, a Luxman R1030 was much better on vinyl than either. So I bought a LUX L-3 inetgrated whose phono stage was even better. Good enough to hear the diff between a basic version of Leach's shunt feed-back haed amps and a super vesrion with mil-spec teflon PCB, huge caps and hand selected super low noise mil-spec transistors silver solder and silver traces. A miltary RF techie built the latter for me.

later I got seduced into vintage rebuilt valve gear.
