Rotel RB990,991,1080 Sonic differences??


Hi, Has anyone compared the Rotel RB 990,991 and 1080 200 watt per channel amps?? I know about the detachable cord and other mechanical differences but need to know if they sound different. Thanks,Keith

I had the 990 & 991 power amps and the only difference internally is that the 991 had balanced inputs... All other parts are exactly the same. I have both schematics and they are EXACTLY the same other than the fake heatsinks on the 1080 & 991. The 1080 I believe has the 12V trigger circuit as well.

Soundwise 990 & 991 sound exactly the same.... 1080 is probably very close if not the same....

I hope this helps...
