I’d be assuming MrRaceCarDriver is being polite with that query ;-)

Personally I’ve never had a ‘good’ ROTEL experience...they tend to cut corners in their designs and found their Amplifiers to be too lean with a bit of ‘grain’ for musical applications. I’ve had a few ROTEL combinations over the past two decades and sorry I’d been seduced by the price and looks of their casework...

If I was on a budget after buying a pair of these, the NAD M33 has the new Eigentakt 200W by Bruno Putzeys in them; coupled with DIRAC you can adjust the sonics to your taste

If you have money to burn; I’m certain these fine Gentlemen will advise you of more exotic combinations soon

Happy Christmas with whatever you do...lovely Speakers, my dream pair in a larger home
