Computer I/O Connector

The RA-1070 can be operated from a per-

sonal computer running audio system control

software from third-party developers. This con-

trol is accomplished by sending the operat-

ing codes normally sent by the RR-969 remote

control over a hard-wired network connec-

tion from the computer.

The COMPUTER I/O input provides the nec-

essary connection on the back panel. It ac-

cepts standard RJ-45 8-pin modular plugs,

such as those commonly used in 10-BaseT UTP

Ethernet cabling.

For additional information on the connections,

software, and operating codes for computer

control of the RA-1070, contact your autho-

rized Rotel dealer.

Audio Controls

Volume Controls and

The front panel Volume control increases

or decreases the volume in both channels at

the same time. Turn it clockwise to increase

the volume or counterclockwise to decrease

the volume. On the RR-969 remote Volume

Button

, press the ▲ to increase volume

or ▼ to decrease volume.

Listening Selector Buttons

and Display

Press one of the Listening Selector Buttons

to select the input signal that goes to the main

outputs and to the power amplifier – or, more

simply, which source is heard. The source

selected is shown in the front panel FL Dis-

play

Recording Selector Buttons

and Display

Press one of the Recording Selector Buttons

to select the input signal that goes to the record

outputs. The source selected is shown in the front

panel FL Display

. When you are not re-

cording, press the Off button. This minimizes

the chance of interference from other compo-

nents in the system.

Having a separate Recording and Listening

selector adds a significant degree of flexibil-

ity in how you can use the RA-1070. For ex-

ample by selecting CD with the Record Se-

lector and selecting Tuner with the Listening

Selector you can record a CD onto a tape while

listening to the tuner.

If you wish to duplicate (“dub”) a recording

from one recorder to another, the source unit

must be connected to Tape 1 in/outputs. Press

the Tape 1 Recording Selector button. Con-

nect the unit recording the signal to the Tape

2 in/outputs.

Contour Control

Instead of conventional tone controls, the

RA-1070 has a front-panel Contour control

which selects one of five available settings.

Each setting provides a fixed frequency con-

tour as follows:

Off: the tone contour circuits are bypassed

to ensure the purest possible sound.

L-1: moderate increase in bass frequencies

(typically +3dB @ 100Hz).

L-2: more increase in bass frequencies (typi-

cally +4dB @ 100Hz).

H: moderate increase in high frequencies

(+3dB @ 10kHz).

LH: combination of L-2 bass and H high fre-

quency increases.

Phones Output

The Phones output allows you to connect head-

phones for private listening. This output ac-

commodates standard stereo phone (1/4”)

plugs. If your headphones have another type

of plug, such as a 1/8” mini-plug, you will

need an adapter plug. Contact your autho-

rized Rotel dealer, to get the correct adapter

plug. Plugging in a set of headphones does

not cut off the signal to the outputs. Use the

Speaker Selector to turn off the speakers. The

setting of the Listening Selector controls which

source is heard. Turn the front panel Listen-

ing Selector to the source you want to listen

to. Or press the corresponding source button

on the remote control.

NOTE: Because the sensitivity of speakers

and headphones can vary widely, always

reduce the volume level before connecting

or disconnecting headphones.
