Getting Started
................... 7
Thank you for purchasing the Rotel RC-1082
Stereo Control Amplifier. When used in a
high-quality music audio system, it will provide
8
years of musical enjoyment.
8
8
The RC-1082 is a full featured, high perfor-
8
mance preamplifier. All aspects of the design
have been optimized to retain the full dynamic
8
range and subtle nuances of your music. The
8
RC-1082 has a highly regulated power sup-
8
ply incorporating a Rotel custom-designed
toroidal power transformer and custom-made
8
slit foil capacitors. This low impedance power
8
supply has ample power reserves, which
8
enables the RC-1082 to easily reproduce the
most demanding audio signals. This type of
design is more expensive to manufacture, but
9
it is better for the music.

9
The RC-1082 printed circuit boards (PCB) are
designed with Symmetrical Circuit Traces. This
insures that the precise timing of the music
is maintained and faithfully recreated. The
RC-1082 circuitry uses metal film resistors
and polystyrene or polypropylene capacitors
in important signal paths. All aspects of this
design have been examined with the final goal
being faithful reproduction of music.
The RC-1082 has a superb phono preamp
stage, derived from Rotel's finest phono pream-
plifier, the RHQ 10. The preamp stage can be
used with either a moving magnet (MM) or a
moving coil (MC) phono cartridge. This shows
our commitment to phono sound quality and
our interest in the recreation of fine music.
The RC-1082 is straightforward in its instal-
lation and operation. If you have experience
with other stereo systems, you shouldn't find
anything perplexing. Simply plug in the as-
sociated components and enjoy.
A Few Precautions
Please read this manual carefully. It provides
complete information on how to incorporate
the RC-1082 into your system as well as
general information that will help you get
optimum sound performance. Please contact
your authorized Rotel dealer for answers to
any questions you might have. In addition,
all of us at Rotel welcome your questions and
comments.
Save the RC-1082 shipping carton and all
enclosed packing material for future use. Ship-
ping or moving the RC-1082 in anything other
than the original packing material may result
in severe damage to your amplifier.
Fill out and send in the owner's registration
card packed with the RC-1082. Also be sure
to keep the original sales receipt. It is your
best record of the date of purchase, which
you will need in the event warranty service
is ever required.
