Rotel RMB-1587 MKII Multi-channel Power Amplifier
The Rotel RMB-1587 MKII Multi-channel Power Amplifier continues Rotel’s heritage of producing high powered, perfectionist amplifiers for multi-channel systems.
Following Rotel’s MKII design architecture, the RMB-1587MKII incorporates significant circuit and component upgrades in both the power supply and amplifier stages achieving ultra-low distortion, signal isolation, and high-gain output power efficiently packaged in a single, multi-channel amplifier chassis.
Differing from multi-channel amplifiers whose output drops when driving multiple channels simultaneously, the RMB-1587MKII delivers all 7 channels of Class AB amplification at 155 Watts per channel into 8 ohms, and 250 Watts per channel into 4 ohms with all channels driven.
The RMB-1587MKII is available in both black and silver colors.

Powerful, nimble, and subtle
Any passionate film buff knows that the movie theatre audio experience is a huge reason for getting in the car and driving to see movies the old-fashioned way.
You might want to pay close attention to this seven-channel power amp from the perfectionists at Rotel. If your dream has been to approximate the high-power, seat-shaking surround experience of your local multiplex in your own home theatre, then this is it.
The RMB-1587 MKII is purpose-built. Bult for taking the multi-channel outputs of any compatible A/V preamp/processor or home theatre receiver, and amplifying the signals with reserves of ready, quick-response power to deliver a faithful, authentic movie experience.
Weighing over 37Kg. and measuring nearly 10″ tall, this is one beast of an amp. But it’s rack-mountable using an available hardware kit (sold separately) to help you integrate it with the rest of your gear.
Exquisite circuitry and design
If you’ve followed Rotel products are known for their pursuit of clean, robust, well-isolated signal paths. This has led to some of the best-designed audio gear in the industry.
Two massive, in-house manufactured high-current toroidal transformers deliver clean sound. Add to this a taut, impactful bass, even when driving the most demanding loudspeakers. Four thermostatically controlled, variable-speed ultra-low-noise fans help the internal components perform at maximum efficiency.
