Has anybody had any experiance with the Rotel RSX-1055, I am considering that over just buying an amp for the front speakers. Do you know what the price point will be for the new Yamaha, I am on a 1000-1500 budget for the receiver/amps whichever route I go.
Thanks,

If you are looking at the 1055, look at what I just saw at audiogon...

I concur on the audiogon idea. If you're looking to find a nice Rotel, find a "nearly new" one on Audiogon and either save a ton on a 1055, or get the 1065. I've bought all my Rotel gear on audiogon, and it's all be excellent!

I'm not being a grammar nazi -- that just made me laugh.

Thanks again for everybody's input, I am picking up my Rotel RSX-1055 tomorrow. I decided that getting the most current format for watching movies was more important than a seperate amplifier for my front speakers. And when I go bigger with the fronts the Rotel will allow me the option to drive the surround speakers and then add a separate Amp for the front. And what else can you say about the sound that hasn't already been said. Anybody interested in purchasing a used Onkyo TX-DS777 in great condition.
