About Rotel

Our story began nearly 50 years ago. Over the decades, we have

received hundreds of awards for our products and satisﬁed hundreds of

thousands of people who take their entertainment seriously – like you!

Rotel was founded by a family whose passionate interest in music led

them to manufacture high-ﬁdelity components of uncompromising

quality. Through the years, that passion has remained undiminished and

the family goal of providing exceptional value for audiophiles and music

lovers, regardless of their budget, is shared by all Rotel employees.

Rotel’s engineers work as a close team, listening to, and ﬁne tuning,

each new product until it reaches their exacting musical standards. They

are free to choose components from around the world in order to make

that product the best they can. You are likely to ﬁnd capacitors from the

United Kingdom and Germany, semiconductors from Japan or the United

States, while toroidal power transformers are manufactured in Rotel’s

own factory.

We all have concerns about our environment. And, as more and more

electronics are produced and later discarded, it is especially important

for a manufacturer to do all it can to engineer products that have a

minimum negative impact on landﬁll sites and water tables.

At Rotel, we are proud to do our part. We have reduced the lead content

in our electronics by using special ROHS solder, while our new Class D

(not digital) ampliﬁers are up to ﬁve times more efﬁcient than our legacy

designs and still deliver power and performance. These products run

cool, give minimum wasted energy, are good for the environment and

give better sound too.

Finally, we have printed this manual on recycled paper stock.

While we understand that these are small ﬁrst steps, they are still

important ones. And we continue to pursue new methods and materials

for a cleaner and greener manufacturing process.

All of us at Rotel thank you for buying this product. We are sure it will

bring you many years of enjoyment.
