About Rotel
Our story began over 50 years ago. Over the decades, we have received
3
hundreds of awards for our products and satisfied hundreds of thousands
4
of people who take their entertainment seriously - like you!

Rotel was founded by a family whose passionate interest in music led them
7
to manufacture high-fidelity components of uncompromising quality. Through
8
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.
10
Rotel's engineers work as a close team, listening to, and fine tuning, each
10
new product until it reaches their exacting musical standards. They are
10
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
10
Kingdom and Germany, semiconductors from Japan or the United States,
while toroidal power transformers are manufactured in Rotel's own factory.
10
We all have concerns about our environment. And, as more and more
11
electronics are produced it is especially important for a manufacturer to do all
11
it can to engineer products that have a minimum impact on the environment.
11
At Rotel, we are proud to do our part. We have reduced the lead content
11
in our products by using special lead-free ROHS solder and components.
11
Our engineers continually strive to improve power supply efficiency without
11
compromise to quality. When in standby mode Rotel products use minimal
power to meet global Standby Power Consumption requirements.
11
11
The Rotel factory is also doing their part to help the environment through
11
constant improvements to product assembly methods for a cleaner and
greener manufacturing processes.

All of us at Rotel thank you for buying this product. We are sure it will bring
12
you many years of enjoyment.

A Word About Watts
This amplifier's power output is rated as 200 watts for each channel, when
12
both channels are operating together at full power. Rotel has chosen to
12
specify the power output in this way because, in Rotel's experience, it gives
12
the truest value of the receiver or amplifier's power capability.
12
13
When comparing specifications for different products, you should be
aware that power output is often specified in other ways, so you may not
13
be comparing like with like. For example, the power output may be quoted
with only one channel operating, giving a higher maximum figure.
A loudspeaker's impedance rating indicates the electrical resistance or
load it offers when connected to the amplifier, usually 8 ohms or 4 ohms.
The lower the impedance, the more power the speaker will need. In effect,
a 4 ohm speaker will require twice as much power as an 8 ohm speaker.
However, Rotel amplifiers are designed to work into any speaker impedance
between 8 and 4 ohms, and with all the channels working up to their full
15
power. Because Rotel designs are optimized for use with all channels operating
15
together, Rotel is able to specify the true power output for both channels.
