Winner of the AVForums 'Recommended' Award, the Rotel A14 MKII Integrated Amplifier receives a terrific review courtesy of Ed Selley, who praised the amp's comprehensive and effective specification, build quality, and clean, accurate and refined sound.
"...the phono stage is a respectable performer in its own right...it manages to combine a respectable amount of gain with low noise levels that means it is easy to pick up little details that can be lost otherwise."
"The tonal realism of the Rotel is entirely believable. In presentation terms, the A14 MkII sits perhaps half a point into ‘forward’ from completely neutral which means that it takes the Spendor A1 and gives it a little lift that makes for a more compelling listen than is the case on an amplifier that is completely ‘down the line.’"
"This is a no nonsense piece of kit equipped to handle most requirements and able to make a more than decent job of most of them. For these reasons the Rotel A14 MkII comes enthusiastically Recommended."
