Audio Controls

Volume Control

As with all normal volume controls turn the

control knob

clockwise to increase the vol-

ume, or counterclockwise to decrease the vol-

ume. Or press the remote control volume but-

ton

next to the s symbol to turn the volume

up; press the button next to the t symbol to turn

the volume down.

Tone On/Off Switch

When the switch is in the Off position the tone

control circuits are bypassed to ensure the purest

possible sound. Leave the switch in the Off po-

sition unless you want to use the tone controls.

Turn the switch to the On position if you want

to adjust the tone controls.

Bass and Treble Controls

When the Tone Switch is in the On position,

turning the Bass and Treble controls adjusts the

tone balance of the sound. Turn the controls

clockwise to increase the bass or treble out-

put. Turn the controls counterclockwise to de-

crease the bass or treble output.

A properly set up high-performance audio

system produces the most natural sound with

little or no adjustment of the tone controls. Use

these controls sparingly. Be particularly care-

ful when turning the controls up (clockwise).

This increases the power output in the bass or

treble range, increasing the load on the am-

plifier and speakers.

Input “Function” Selector

The setting of the Function Selector controls

which of the input signals goes to the main

outputs and onto the power amplifier – or, more

simply, which source is heard. Turn the knob

on the front panel control

to the source

you want to use, or press the corresponding

button

on the RR-C91 remote The signal

from the selected source also goes to the Tape

Outputs.

Tape Monitor Switch

When the Tape Monitor switch is in the Source

position you hear the sound source that is

selected by the Function Selector. Turning the

switch to the Tape position lets you listen to

a previously recorded tape, or monitor the

sound from the tape recorder while you are

recording.

Mute Control (remote only)

To temporarily mute the sound of the system

press the Mute Button on the RR-C91 remote.

Press the button again to return the sound

volume to the original level. The LED in the

volume control will flash when the unit is muted.

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.

Note: Plugging in a set of headphones

does not cut off the signal to the outputs. In

most instances you should turn off the

power amplifier when listening to head-

phones.

Recording

Set the Function Selector switch to the com-

ponent you want to use for the signal source.

If you have a three-head cassette recorder, a

three-head reel-to-reel tape recorder or a DAT

recorder that allows simultaneous “read and

write” operation you can monitor your record-

ing by setting the Tape Monitor switch

the “Tape” position. When not monitoring a

recording, or listening to a previously recorded

tape, set the Tape Monitor switch

to the

“Source” position.

Optional Phono Board Card

In order to use an analog phono turntable with

the RC-972 you must install the optional MM

or MC phono board card. These plug in boards

convert the Aux 1 input to a phono input. They

can be installed by your authorized Rotel

dealer, or you can install them yourself. If you

plan to install them yourself, follow the sup-

plied instructions very carefully. Failure to

precisely follow the instructions can result in

damage to the RC-972 or personal injury. If

you are not sure you have the knowledge and

skills to properly install the preamp boards,

have the installation done by your dealer.
