This amplifier is a great option for those starting out in HiFi who are wanting a proper traditional amp at an affordable price point. It doesn’t have the range of inputs or quite the power of its bigger siblings like the A10 mkII or the A11 mkII. But it maintains the quintessential Rotel sound, reliability and ethos.
We at HiFi Guru find the pairing of the A8 with a set of Acoustic Energy AE100.2s particularly pleasing.
