Rotel RB-1080 - good/bad for Legacy Classics?


I am considering a Rotel RB-1080 to replace my Carver TFM-35 - driving Legacy Classic speakers. Any words of wisdom? Bang for buck is important, college aged kids consume all discretionary income. Thanks for the advice.

I used to own the 1080 about 2 years ago. The sound is nice but I found it a bit anemic in the midrange. Also, I recall there used to be a problem with it blowing fuses pretty regularly so be wary if you buy used. For the money, I would go for the Parasound Halo A21 instead. I found the A21 to have a fuller, warmer midrange with great dynamics.

Good luck.
