RE: Rotel RB-1582MKII Amp

Posted by Braxus on February 13, 2017 at 19:02:11:
I work 6 days a week, and my one day off they are closed. Not only that, but the store is 60 miles away. So not a short drive. I find people who've had this amp for a while more useful to talk to then a 2 hour brief listening session. I know Rotel's sound, which is why I keep coming back to it. But their amps made in China in the past decade were not completely up to snuff compared to amps in the 90s. I'm just wondering if the current amps have changed that opinion, or if it is still relevant.
