RE: Rotel RB-1582MKII Amp

Posted by Braxus on March 5, 2017 at 09:59:15:
I ended up getting the amp, as I found a good deal on it used. It been used for less then a year. Sounds fine to me, though the speakers its used with are not in the best position for listening at this time.

I don't dislike the Rotel sound, as every amp I've listened to of theirs, had something I liked about them. I just wanted to know if this amp improved upon the earlier series which had a few shortcomings.

This amp is retailed at $1699 Canadian plus taxes. I got mine for $1050 plus shipping.
