    Which amp is better suited?

    Hey guys, I have a old Rega P2 turntable with a Rotel RA05 amp playing through B&W S606 bookshelf speakers. I see there is a 2nd hand Rotel RA980BX available in my area which appear to be more powerful - would this be a better suited amp than what I currently have? Power and quality? Thank you...

    Amp for Wharfedale Diamond 12.2

    Hello there all! I am planning to buy a pair of Wharfedale Diamond 12.2 speakers, and now I'm thinking about an amp to pair with them. I mostly listen to progressive and classic rock. Phono and digital inputs are welcome, but I'm willing to buy a dac or a preamp later on, so neither of those are...

    Rotel a11 tribute vs naim nap 250, new vs vintage

    Hello everyone, I just bought a rotel a11 tribute and am very happy so far. I have an old unserviced Naim nac72 nap 250 setup and compared to the new crisp rotel, it is a little bit underwhelming. I have bookshelf speakers but plan on buying floorstandings eventually. Would you sell the naim for...

    Need advice on Amp, New Rotel vs Older Bryston, Krell, or McIntosh

    Hello fellow forum-ers, Brand new to the community here, excited to start the journey haha. I wanted to get some insight on which amp I should purchase. I just bought a Rotel RC-1572 MKII because I love the feature of it being able to automatically turn on when it detects a signal. I use a...

    Updating Setup: Newbie Question

    I plan to upgrade my elderly setup, and wonder whether I should start by replacing the receiver or the speakers. All this is going to happen at an absolutely minimal budget, so I'll do it one step at a time. I have a Rotel RX-830 receiver and Celestion DL4 speakers. I bought these back in 1985...

    RECIVA INTERNET RADIO, IS ANYONE ELSE HAVING DIFFICULTY WITH THIS SERVICE? I AM NOT VERY HAPPY WITH THEIR RESPONSE THAT IT NO LONGER WORKS AND THEY ARE WORKING ON A SOLUTION SINCE JULY. MY ROTEL RT - 12 COST £650 AND IT IS NOW NOT WORKING PROPERLY.

    Streaming Setup - Replacing a Chromecast Audio and Rotels Amp internal DAC with a Bluesound Node ?

    Hey all, I am slowly moving into a more smart home setup and the next thing on my list due for an upgrade is the streamer. I am currently using a Chromecast Audio (nice little cheap device that does the job for the last 4 years or so) which is connected via optical cable to a Rotel RA-12...

    Can't decide between the Rotel A12 and Cambridge Audio CXA60.

    Hey guys, been lurking here a while so I thought I'd finally make my presence known. I'm looking to buy either the A12 or the CXA60 but having a hard time deciding. I realise the A12 is a bit of a jack of all trades with its added USB input and Phono Stage features over the CXA60 but I'd like...
