Rotel RB-1080 and Sonus Faber GP?

I haven't heard of the rotel 1080 but would think you wouldn't get the best of the GP's with those.

Try them with quality amps and you would be well astound by the GP's. Truly great speakers which don't cost a fortune.

Hi Ryder,
I read your post about Plinius and I notice you are verry happy with Plinius SA-100MK III.Right now I use a rotel amp rmb 1075,5 channel*120 watts each.Have to recognize the amp can not drive the SF GP properly,the front speakers need more juice,so I'm thinging to buy a rotel amp 2 channel 200 watts each channel for fronts.Rotel in my opinion are good amp for the money,but sure not the best,anyway I think it's hard to find the same quality for the money.But the first reason I want to buy the same brand ,it's I'm afraid if I buy different brand, when I listen in DD, DTS or dvd audio,I'll get different sound,this scenario is for HT(5 or more channel).It is true 80 % I listen in stereo,but I'm afraid the result will be not ok if I have different amps brands.Maybe you have more experience wiht this.So I want to built a system, stereo and also Ht(2 channel+5 channel)I,m temp to try Plinius but I dont now anybody here in Seattle to own this brand.Any sugestion will be welcome,thanks,
dixi
PS. my main concern is how it's working 2 different amp brands?Will be easy if i can listen,but have to buy used...

Correction "...you wouldn't get the best out of the GP's with those"

I'm using Plinius SA-100MKIII to drive them with great effect.

freind of mine has vac avatar with GP. sounds great.

I have a NAD 763 for HT (SF Solo, SF Walls, REL Strata III) with a NAD 272 (150 watts) for the GP front speakers. Absolute Sound recently gave NAD 272 kudos in the under $1000 range. I am 2 months into this set-upand listen 50% stereo/50% HT. I knew I was potentially under utilizing the GP with this combo, however I have been pleasantly surprised. I have added acoustic treatments and decent cables which have helped the overall sound. I originally auditioned the GPs on Primare amps. I was just not prepared to invest in Primare, McCormick, Edge, etc. at this point
