    I googled it and found a new one here:

    http://www.hometheaterstore.com/Rotel_RB_1092_Class_D_Stereo_Amplifier_p/rb1092.htm

    Another one showed up used on the Gon, but I guess you don't want to buy used.?

    Good luck.

    Good question. i currently have a rb-1080 and the fuses have blown once so far. I contacted rotel and they said that my rtia9's were rated for 500wpc. I am underpowering the speakers. I figured the rb-1092 was going to do the job and keep me in my price range. I read one good write up about it. What do you think ? :confused:

    Try Canuck Audio Mart. I've never bought from there. I assume they'll ship to the states...

    This is what I did. Went to ROTEL web site for dealer locator. Called all dealers within a 3 hour drive to find a RB-1090. I ended up driving 1hr45min. to listen to a demo. It had 2yrs. left under warranty and walked out with it for 1,300.00 tax exempt because of biz. 1090 now in demo room enjoying listening to the kick a** on my A9's

    Mr. Neale 13. I think Rotel is blowing smoke up your pooper. I'm running A9's on a RB-1090 ( 380WPCRMS) and I'm not blowing any fuses. You can can call Polk CS and NO ONE will commit to safe continuous power levels. I've called literally at least 7 times and got different techs. and no one will commit with a concrete rating. Rotel just don't want to admit your unit may have a issue. Ask Rotel if THEY are gonna fix your A9's if 500wpcrms cooks them. I bet they change their line of poo!. Tough to say cause I am a Rotel fan.
