    Yes. I sold my Sony STRZA5000es while ago as I was planning on getting a new AVR. I was hot to trot for the new Denon and Marantz models as they sound awesome. But then I started messing around with the new Integra models and Sony released a new ES line so I needed to dig into that line. Sony ES models are very good, no nonsense you don't pay for a bunch of bells and whistles you most likely never use. They put a lot of time and money into the amp section and preamp where it counts so I like that. I'm getting a new one.

    Surge Protectors I have some sitting around and I decided to start cleaning out the collection. I also have my Rotel RMB1075 I'll probably sell off as well. I just took it out of the basement to 1 test it make sure it's still 100% and play with it as it's a powerful model. My room doesn't require external amps as I can get away with AVR power as I usually always buy flagship level models. And I use efficient speakers so I never run out of power.

    I still have mine after all these years. I'd have to pay a whole lot more to get something better. My next move will be a power regenerator.

    Until then, this thing keeps chugging along and does a great job!

    Pretty happy with this unit. 100% as-described/pictured by Dan!

    It’s definitely not the easiest thing to A/B with, and I don't notice it so much with my turntable, but I am hearing an improvement in midrange clarity with higher-quality recordings from my digital sources. (Amp is directly into the wall.)

    I try to keep my expectations low and really wasn't expecting to notice any sonic differences with this unit. Mainly just wanted it for peace of mind from power surges and other electrical gremlins, but there's a certain frequency range where vocals, piano and lead guitar have more definition now and take on a more lifelike character. I was gonna ask if that was "normal” for power conditioners, but I did some searching on the forum after noticing this and I see some similar comments.

    At any rate, I'm a sucker for the black, silver and blue LED look ever since getting my Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum III last fall and this has it going on in spades, so that's cool, too.

    I’m super-happy with where my system has come in the last 6 or 7 months, thanks in no small part to the great folks here. Amps, vintage Polk speaker upgrades, DACs, tubes, power conditioners, cables ... it's all been good. Every once in a while I'll throw something on I haven't listened to since I started getting back into this hobby and I can't believe how good it sounds through the same 15TLs that I've always listened through. Lol Thanks, gents! 👍

    I'm extremely happy you're happy. It looks incredible in your system. Not to mention SO much better then living on a shelf in my basement.

    Your system looks awesome man.

    Are you still kicking around the idea of selling the 1075?
