Where to buy Rotel products?


Why is it so hard to find a local Houston area Rotel dealer? I've been searching online also and every authorized dealer is over seas. Nothing in the U.S. There's nothing on EBay either but older used equipment. Nothing new from their current product line. I'm looking to purchase a RCD 1572 cdp and a RT 1570 tuner and digital gateway to match my RA 1570 integrated. Anyone know of a dealer in Houston, besides Best Buy since they are consistently over priced from MSRP, or an online dealer that's located in the continental U.S.?
Thanks

I can’t afford the RC-1590 yet, having just spent a bunch getting back into photography.  Right now I have the RC-1580. It sounds great. But no digital connectivity.  The speed and range of the 1590 amp really impress me. I am not sure I will get better sound out of the amp with the 1590 pre. I wish I could compare the two preamps. Glad you enjoying yours. That’s what matters.
Agreed. Rotel is for audiophiles who are on a budget. Their amps perform great at affordable price points. Rotel is comparable with NAD, Rega, Creek, Cambridge Audio, Peachtree Audio, Arcam, Music Hall. These are affordable audiophile quality products.

Sonically or performance wise, Rotel is a step up from Marantz (with the exception of Marantz Reference series), Denon, Onkyo/Integra, Yamaha, Pioneer Elite, Sony. especially when it comes to amps and two-channel gears.
