skiptomygiroux Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Hey guys/gals: I recently visited my local home audio store as I am planning on upgrading some of the components in my chain. Currently, I have have an Optimus reciever and speakers as well as a Project Debut III. Im looking to make a nice step up with this purchase and so far I have bought a pair of B&W 685s and stands. The nice fella at the audio store has both a Rotel 1550 Pre and 1562 Amp paired up for $900. I know the 1562 is a class D amp, but will I honestly notice a huge different between the class D and A/B amplifiers? So I ask you (besides the question above), should I go ahead and pick these guys up, or does anyone have another recommendation for me? Thanks!

ajxd Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 You won't notice a difference between the amp styles. You'll only notice how incredibly your system is going to sound going from junk to quality products. Also that's a hell of a deal. Those amps alone were $900 if I remember correctly.

slinch Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Go for it! This set retails here for around $1700. For $900 it's a steal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skiptomygiroux Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 well i guess thats good enough for me! obviously there are better units out there but it doesnt seem like Ill get a decent price match. if i was to look at something else, I guess it would be marantz or NAD right?

ajxd Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I wouldn't look anywhere else. That's a ridiculous deal, and Rotel makes incredible products. Their phono preamps are insanely good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
