See if you can find a Rotel dealer near you. A friend of mine bought his Anthem system while I was building my Rotel system. I paid much less than he, and according to him, my system sounds just as good. On top of that, Rotel customer service is pretty decent. (Nothing like Axiom, but who is?)
Rotel also has an unofficial online
club. You can post questions and get lots of helpful info there.
Good luck!
note - It seems that the site which hosts the club is down right now...keep checking back. It'll be up again soon, I'm sure.
