I am also considering a Bryston 4b3 but am not sure if it would pair as well as the rb1590. For me, given a larger price tag performance different would have to be substantial to justify a 2x cost. By substantial I mean any normal person should be able to point out the difference easily.

I have read a bunch of reviews on the Rotel amp. Yes, very awesome amp to consider.

Have a look at the review of the Bryston 4B Cube on SoundStage HiFi.

Do you have access from a dealer to test both in your room?

Here in Canada, the 4B Cube has come up on the used market which should place it in the same pricing as the Rotel and you get excellent long term warranty with Bryston.

Quoting myself from nearly four years ago. After years of anticipation I’ve been enjoying the Rotel RB-1590 with my B&W 683 S2 speakers for about two months now.

It sounds really great. Dare I say that I’m not only pleased with it but I’m content. Here’s to that feeling lasting a longtime.:thumbsup:

Here’s to joey v for the great write-ups he did on the RB-1590. Thanks, joey v.

It is a good feeling when things come together.:music:

Cheers,

Scott
