161.0. "Rotel 855 vs PCM II ?" by NZIRC5::EATON (Marketing - the rubber meets the sky) Thu Mar 22 1990 00:50

I'm trying to make up my mind between a Mission PCM II (a good clean sound and
nice bass) and the new Rotel 855 which I haven't listened to, but has been 
reviewed well. To add to a Cyrus II/764 system.

Can anyone comment on the merits of these two machines ?

The recent price reduction on the PCM II is tempting, but also a signal that
a new model will be released soon.

cheers,
Dave.

161.1Good Rotel Review in SPAKOV13::MILNEMon Jul 23 1990 18:506
    The Rotel just received an excellent review in Stereophile.  They said
    it was very suitable for even very high end systems.  The reviewer, a
    musician, said it was so good he and 20 of his fellow orchestra members
    were going to get one.

	Hi-Fi Choice rates the Rotel a "Best Buy". I just picked up one,
	and will be reviewing it in the AUDIO notesfile shortly.
