Is Quad an upgrade from Rotel?


I've read lots of good stuff about Quad amps but I'm not very familiar with them. I currently have a Rotel RB-1080/RC-1090 and was wondering if Quad is an upgrade over Rotel? Has anyone compared products from these two brands?

Thanks for any feedback!

quad is up the line from rotel, but question remains which quad to which rotel still.
Mkash3, yes I have heard this combination of Quad and thought the sound produced was outstanding.
I used to own the Quad 99/909 and it is a very nice combination, as well as being a real bargain at the used price. The 99 has a very nice MM/MC phono section also. IMO it would be a step up from Rotel.
