Review 2 of 51
Price Paid:
$0.00 Summary: Always wished to listen this rotel 200 watts at 8 ohms amp, price was its great attraction and value for money, I bought krell FPB-200 in the year 2004 (Used one for $3800) as many of my friend recommended me. I was disappoinded by the price i spent for krell as i could have bought a new rotel for much cheaper. Today october 2008 I manage to listen Rotel 1095 as it went through an add. I was in search for an amp for my friend who bought B&W 683 as I advised him to buy. We first listened it on Krell 200watts at my place, then we managed to play it on Rotel, the sound sucks, rotel showed lack of natural sound, all the listen pleasure and sweetness was gone, my ears started hurting and I lost the listenening tolerance after 2 tracks. Strengths: low frequency sound, like bass and punch, good value for money, great price. Weaknesses: Natural sound, too bright will get ear fatique, mid is also too loud as compared to the low and high , the balance is lost.
I would rather go for Denon or Yamaha instead of Rotel for the same price. Similar Products Used: Arcam, Nad , Naim , Adcom

from hi fi retailer Summary: I bought this because it was in my price range and it is a verygood amp.low floor noise.conveys a great clean sound.the amp put out 210wts all 5 channels diven when i had it tested.with the front 2 channels driven only you can xpect around 250wts a channel.it is great in the bottom endand through the rest of the spectrum.my only compliant is when driving it hard it does get warm and has shut down on me.but i was really driving it in its defense.i have not heard anyone else have this problem with this amp but me it seems.i do like to to play my music loud wen the girlfriend is out:)probably louder than most.i still plan on getting a more powerful amp but this would do a great job for most people. Strengths: clean powerful sound.heavy.yes heavy is a plus in amps!i lik the rear casters. Weaknesses: does get rather warm Similar Products Used: hk,soundcraftsman,mac,adcom.

Review 5 of 51
Price Paid:
$2000.00
from Local Dealer Summary: I've had this amp since early 2001. I enjoy it as much now as when it was new. It's performed flawlessly since day one.
Since I bought it I upgraded from a Pioneer Elite receiver (which is a sweet sounding piece of gear) to a Rotel (1066) pre-amp; from Paradigm LCR-350 to Paradigm Studio 100v2 speakers; and from a Sony CD player to Rotel.
When new, the amp sounded clean and sweet. It can bring subtlety and it can bring horsepower. It let me hear the improvement with each upgrade of other pieces. It impressed me enough that I went to Rotel for my pre-amp and my CD player, and I'm completely pleased with both. They've also worked perfectly for years.
Some of the mega dollar amps may sound better, I don't know. I like this amp enough that I'm not even curious. For people who have to pay some attention to their budget or who want sensible gear, I think you'd be hard pressed to top Rotel.
It is heavy, but has casters underneath to aid positioning. It came double boxed. It's tall enough that you may have to improvise and adapt to find a place for it (I put mine on top of my sub, where it also gets plenty of air).
Strengths: Sweet, clean sound
Subtlety
Power
Value
Reliability Weaknesses: Possibly, size or weight
