Hi, I just found this on Ebay for only $100, and it seems to be a good deal. The reviews for it were very good. Has anyone here had any experience with this? I still haven't heard from the guy about the NAD preamp. Which one do you think would be better? The Rotel or the NAD 117? Thanks.

    I had this with my rotel 980 amp, it sounded good for 2 channel what i used it for, however i wanted bass/treble and balance features... even though i dont use them much i want the availability for some material.. the bass eq button (ie;loudness) was a bit much on the bass for me... unless you listened at low levels... without the button it seemed to lack bass... overall a clean unit and sounded pretty good with a few drawbacks... no big deal.... I seen a few end for 30-50 bucks lately not a bad deal for a pre,
