Without addressing the possible synergy between two Rotel components, I'll suggest that the 8008BB is the better amp. Regardless of rating, the 8008 is going to be plenty powerful as well, it's way under-spec'd. I owned one for years and it's as good as much more expensive amps. Do you have any specific questions?
Rotel RB-1090 v. Aragon 8008BB
I'm trying to decide between two used poweramps in very good condition--a Rotel RB-1090 poweramp and an Aragon 8008BB. I'll run them through a Rotel RC995 preamp to Taylo Reference monitors. I listen mostly to Baroque and Romantic Italian opera, Mozart, and lots of jazz (classic Ellington, Lester Young, and 50s-60s Monk, Trane, and Miles).
There is also the option of going smaller with a Denon PMA-2000 IVR.
