BrotherBob: I have RX-1052 stereo receiver with RCD-1072 cd player. If you like separates (or/and if you have more money) get rb-1070 power amp and rc-1070 preamp. RCD-1072 is a must!

Actually I just bought the RB-1080 amp and RC-1070 preamp a week ago for a pair of 80s for stereo only, hopefully they should be here Monday or Tuesady of this week and the 80s will be ordered soon after the arrival. I have a 60s system for HT with an H/K reciever so the wait won't be too aefull bad.  Axioms sound sweet!

I keep hearing lots of great things about that RCD-1072. I just have a hard time convincing myself to spend that kind of dough on a unit that can only playback cd's. For just about the same price I can get the Denon 2900.
But the curiosity it killing me.

Denon 2900 is cheaper, RCD-1072 retails for usd 700 (but I got it $640 brand new) I have more than 300 redbook CDs and I just wanted to get the most of them, the sound is excellent and the look of all Rotel combo gear is just as great! Besides you may want your receiver remote to control the CD player, as this is not the case of general consumer electronics controlling Rotel equipment. Just FYI, RCD-1072 plays HDCD, they are not very common but I have a couple and sound so warm and natural.
For more costumer reviews on Rotel gear in general go to htguide.com/forums and then click on Club Rotel.
