I'd look into getting the Rotel repaired. If it's not possible or too expensive, I'd take a look at the Emotiva line of amplifiers. I had a RMB-1095 and still have an Emotiva XPA-5 Gen II. Both are fine for home theater and I'd describe them as more similar than different. The Rotel (and a RMB-1075) left my system(s) a long time ago, but I still use the Emotiva for surround duty in my 2nd system. I wouldn't recommend either for critical music listening, but for your stated purpose, Emotiva fits the bill and your budget nicely if the Rotel can't be repaired.
Need to replace my Rotel RMB-1095 . suggestions pls
I have not been actively following trends/products for awhile in the audio/home theater and my Rotel RMB-1095 amp just lost the left front channel so I am looking for some advice on a replacement. I have bought and sold on Audiogon though not for years ...
I was happy with the performance and sound of the Rotel. I would like to spend <2k
My current audio setup is:
Marantz AV7701 pre-amp, Aerial 7Bs, CCB3, 5Bs and a Martin Logan Descent with Transparent speaker and interconnect cables
I use my system for TV/Movies and non-critical music enjoyment ..
Thanks !
