The Rotel RSX-1560 Surround Sound Receiver Gets Another Stellar Review

This is one HOT Surround Sound Receiver.  Just ask  Arlen Schweiger, managing editor of  Electronic House magazine.  The  January / February edition  features a glowing review of the RSX-1560.

Rotel RSX-1560 $2,599 in Silver or Black.

A few quotes from the review;

“The RSX-1560 emphasizes clarity, transparency and depth. To my ears, two-channel listening felt just as immersive, if not more so, than the surround tracks.”

“Standard CDs like The Rite of Strings by Al DiMeola, Stanley Clarke and Jean-Luc Ponty felt like the jazz cats were performing in my room. My Classic Yes CD was revealed to have more hiss than I recalled; but the richly layered music also came forth in a more enveloping soundstage, with instruments pinpointed where they would be onstage anchored by the backdrop of Bill Bruford’s drums. And on the Allman Brothers’ Jessica, I caught background acoustic guitar details I wasn’t used to hearing despite listening to the tune hundreds of times.”

“Movie soundtracks were equally engaging. Dolby TrueHD lossless audio encoding came through in full force on 300, as did samples of DTS-HD Master Audio from its demo disc. Immersive action from Black Hawk Down felt properly reproduced through the speakers as gunfire, running and dialogue occurred on and off the screen. And demo’ing an Oscar-winning soundtrack just felt right on this audiophile-quality receiver.”
