About Rotel

A family whose passionate interest in music

led them to manufacture high fidelity compo-

nents of uncompromising quality founded Rotel

40 years ago. 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.

The engineers work as a close team, listen-

ing 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 prod-

uct the best they can. You are likely to find

capacitors from the United Kingdom and

Germany, semi conductors from Japan or the

United States, while toroidal power transformers

are manufactured in Rotel’s own factory.

Rotel’s reputation for excellence has been

earned through hundreds of good reviews and

awards from the most respected reviewers in

the industry, who listen to music every day.

Their comments keep the company true to its

goal - the pursuit of equipment that is musi-

cal, reliable and affordable.

All of us at Rotel, thank you for buying this

product and hope it will bring you many years

of enjoyment.

The RSP-976 can generate heat during nor-

mal operation. Do not block ventilation open-

ings. Allow a minimum of 10 cm (4 inches)

of unobstructed space around the unit. If in-

stalled in a cabinet, make sure that there is

adequate ventilation.

Don’t stack other components or objects on

top of the RSP-976. Don’t let any liquid fall

into the unit.

RR-969 Remote Control

The RSP-976 includes a full-function learning

remote control that can operate the RSP-976

plus nine other components.

A separate manual, included with the remote,

gives detailed instructions on programming and

using the RR-969 to replace all of the remote

controls in your system. To avoid duplication,

we provide only basic information about us-

ing the RR-969 to operate the RSP-976 in this

manual.

Most of the RR-969 functions duplicate the

front panel controls. For that reason, we will

cover the operating controls on the remote in

the appropriate sections of this manual. Let-

ters in gray boxes next to the name of a func-

tion refers to the labeled illustration of the

remote at the front of this manual.

Using the RR-969

To operate the RSP-976 with the remote, make

sure that the AUDIO mode is active by press-

ing the AUD button

on the remote before

you start. The AUDIO mode will stay active

until another DEVICE button is pressed.

Programming the RR-969

The RR-969 is preprogrammed to operate the

RSP-976. Should the AUDIO command set on

your RR-969 not operate the RSP-976, the

programming may have been changed. To re-

store the RSP-976 programming, press the re-

cessed PRELOAD button

on the remote with

the tip of a ballpoint pen.

NOTE

: Pushing the PRELOAD button will erase

all custom programming and learned com-

mands, restoring the RR-969 to its factory

condition.
