Does anyone know of an on-line source for factory refurbished Rotel products?

Hey Bob,

No place I know of. Here is a list of used Rotel gear from Audiogon.

Yeah...I wish! The only way to find deals on Rotel is buying used. They do an excellent job of keeping dealers from selling their stuff below msrp. The best you can generally hope to get is maybe 10-15% off from a dealer on new stuff.

I bought my stuff used, and haven't had any issues. What exactly are you looking for?

Don't know what he is after but If I could find what you have spiff at a decent price, I would be all over it. Either that or a Parasound 1205A.

RSP-1066's can be had for about $1000 now, as the newer 1068 has been released. There's nothing earth shatteringly different about the 1068, so there's some deals to be had if you're willing to take "last years model".

I've seen the RMB-1075 go for about $750 - 800...for for under $2000 you can have really nice separates (if that's your thing). High end receivers cost more than that.

Yeah I know. I was thinking about adding a 5 channel again to take a little of the load off my 3805.

Try E-Bay........

I just purchased the 961 tuner from 2002 for 111.00 (originally 350.00} and a 970 BX CD player from 1997 originally{650.00} for 125.00. I thought I would do my own side by side review for the "older" CD player with my Pioneer 563. Since the Rotel was that cheap, I thought I'd take a chance

Hey guys, thanks for the responses. I was afraid that Rotel was not available on-line, as I couldn't find anything. I guess I will have to consider used equipment, the price is right, but buying used without warranty and without hearing the equipment makes me very nervous...

I am looking for the lower end amps/pre-amps to power something like the M60's. I don't have a specific model, I guess I am just looking to see what is available at the best price. What would you recommend?
