The heat issues with Rotel seem to be around their A/V Receivers only. I have the RSP-1066/RMB-1075 combo and there is no heat issue at all if well ventilated. I just picked both of these units up used and highly recommend buying used...

Hmmm.. mine numbers will be a little bit inaccurate because I got the speakers at 60% off new... but here it goes. All prices are in CDN$ and include taxes where applicable. 27% - $750 Energy Connoisseur Speakers (retailed for...
