process where the 2 stereo channels contain matrix encoded information for the front, center and rear channels.
This information can be extracted by a Dolby Surround decoder during playback of the encoded source material.
We have incorporated an audiophile quality Dolby Pro Logic decoder for the best possible reproduction of this
information. This has logic steering circuits that make separation of the channels and localization of the sound
image more precise. This will make the surround sound effects more realistic and entertaining. Dolby Surround
encoded music, movies dr sports broadcasts are all compatible with stereo or mono playback. They offer a much
more entertaining rendition of the source material when decoded by a Dolby Pro Logic decoder though.
INSTALLATION
>
Please place the unit on a DRY, level surface away from direct sunlight. Avoid placing objects on top of the
cabinet. Do not allow water to fall onto it as this could damage the circuitry. Avoid installing in a location where
excessive heat, direct sunlight, humidity, vibration or moisture will be a problem. We recommend installation in
furniture designed to house audio and video components. This will allow the RSP 970 to be installed on a
separate shelf, not stacked on another component. This will minimize potential interference or heat build up
from other components in your system. Component furniture has the added benefit of reducing or suppressing
vibration and
all audio and video components will provide improved sound when free from vibration.
Component
furniture will improve the looks of many system installations, provide adequate ventilation for amplifiers and
isolation for components. It is also easier to dress the wires to reduce interference between sensitive audio/video
cables, speaker cables and power cords for components.
Ask your ROTEL/j/
fi
AUTHORIZED DEALER for advice about component furniture and proper installation of
audio and video components. A little planning and careful installation will have great benefits in the way your
system sounds and functions. A properly installed system will be a source of great pleasure and entertainment to
your family and friends for years to come. Care and planning during installation will be well rewarded.
The POWER INDICATOR LIGHT will illuminate
at all times during
STANDBY mode when AC power is available
to the RSP 970. The power light will extinguish when the RSP 970 is in use. When in STANDBY mode, the
RSP 970 will remember the previously chosen input and output selections.
CONTROLS ON THE FRONT PANEL
The STANDBY button will turn the SWITCHED OUTLETS and the sound ON and OFF. Push it
once
and the
switched outlets and sound will turn ON. Press the STANDBY button again and the switched outlets and the sound
will be OFF. The front panel includes the REMOTE SENSOR for receiving the infra red signals from the remote
control handset. Please be certain not to block this as the remote control will not function if this sensor is covered
or blocked.
The MASTER VOLUME control adjusts all the channels at the same time. Channel balance
between
channels is
established by using the BALANCE CHECK during INITIAL SET UP. The ON SCREEN display will show the
MASTER VOLUME level by numerical value. Pushing the upper half of the volume control ( A )
increases
the
volume and pushing the lower half of the volume control ( V )
decreases
the volume in all channels. The MUTE
button,
on the remote control only,
will silence the sound output. Press it once to MUTE the PREOUT output
connections. Press the MUTE button again to hear sound output. The ON SCREEN display (and an indicator light
on the front panel) will show the word MUTE when you press the MUTE button.
We have provided INPUT selector buttons, labeled LISTENING, on the front panel. LISTENING selects the audio
or video source in the main room
and
for RECORD OUT from TAPE OUT connections on the back panel. The
