Hi.
I am currently thinking about getting ROTEL amplification. Maybe the new models RC-1570 preamp + RB-1582 MkII power amp. As I do not have the chance to audition them like I did with previous models, please, does anyone know if there are (listenable and significant) differences between these new models and the previous RC-1580 preamp + RB-1582 power amp?
(I know the sound of the combo RC-1580 preamp + RB-1582 power amp and it is great for an intense rock music listener like me. It's warm, it has the enough amount of detail, great control, dynamics, depth and timing. I find it very natural and musical. Bands like Nothing, Rage Against The Machine, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Rollins Band, The Black Keys, Mercury Rev, Vista Chino or Killing Joke sounded great through ROTEL amps. Even in your face and complex guitar sound was presented perfectly without any harshness or discomfort. Dynamic, but civilised and warm.)
Thanks.
