Free Shipping on *ALL* Electronics (Excluding Speakers, Contiguous 48 US States Only)

120W x 5 - a great value in home theater and sure to outperform just about anything else in this price range.

Very clean with no noticeable scratches or signs of use. 

More from Rotel:
"This multi-channel power amplifier delivers 120 watts (all channels driven), thanks to a power supply composed of a generous 1,500 VA toroidal transformer and eight 10,000 µf British-made Slit Foil capacitors. 20 output devices, each of which is rated for 130 watts and 15 amperes of current capability, make full use of the supply's potential.

The RMB-1075 's generous headroom and state of the art signal-to-noise measurements ensure unsullied reproduction of the most dynamic as well as the most delicate sonic nuances.

Complete with gold plated RCA and DB-25 input connectors, the RMB-1075 is ideally suited for either home theater applications or bi-amped systems optimized for music reproduction. Separate 12 volt "trigger " input and output jacks make this amplifier well suited for fully integrated systems with total remote control capability."

Our Testing Process for Amplifiers (Solid State) at SkyFi:

We start with a visual inspection of all internal components to make sure there are no signs of stress or aging. Capacitors are checked for telltale sings of bulging or leaking, resistors are checked for signs of overheating or cracking, and transistors are checked for signs of stress or damage.

We then power up the unit carefully and run a simple 1k sine wave while monitoring the output on an oscilloscope for signs of distortion or noise. Finally, we run the amplifier to its full rated power into the appropriate resistive load provided by our Sencore amplifier tester. If there is an issue, it will usually be noticeable at this point. If everything reads clean, we will often test for THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) measured by our Keithley distortion meter, and compare it against the original manufacturers specifications. The amplifier then remains powered on to "burn in" on our test bench for a few hours to make sure there are no heat related issues. If there are balanced inputs available they will be also be tested.

Final testing involves pushing actual music thorough the amplifier. We've learned over time that some issues are only noticeable to a trained ear while listening to familiar source material. Our test bench has reference vintage Kef speakers that we're very familiar with which quickly reveal any discrepancies. Some amplifiers will then move into our listening room where they are tested with our in-house reference speakers of choice.
