I had considered the Rotel when shopping for recievers, along with the NAD t773, B&K AVR507 and a couple others. I ended up deciding on the B&K. The NAD was on the list because of the sound and power, however I had reservations about it due to the problems some people have encountered with noise on some of the lower end models from NAD. And i do not like the NAD binding posts. I had a set break on my C370 amp. However They are simple to replace, They are a bad design and are prone to breaking in my opinion.

The rotel is nice but I dont know how well it mates with the axioms soundwise.

You cant go wrong with anything at this price range if you ask me.
