All of us at Rotel thank you for buying this

Getting Started
Thank you for purchasing the Rotel RMB-1085
Five-Channel Power Amplifier. When used in
a high-quality music or home theater system,
your Rotel amplifier will provide years of
musical enjoyment.
The RMB-1085 is a sophisticated five-channel
power amplifier. Its digital amplifier circuitry,
switching power supply, premium components,
and Rotel's Balanced Design ensure superb
sound quality. High current capability allows
the RMB-1085 to drive difficult speaker loads
with ease.
Operating Features
• Five amplifier channels.
• User selectable power on/off configuration:
manual, or controlled by remote 12 volt
trigger signal.
• Protection circuitry with front panel indica-
tor.
A Few Precautions
Please read this manual carefully. In addition
to installation and operating instructions, it
provides information on various RMB-1085
system configurations. 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 RMB-1085 shipping carton and
packing material for future use. Shipping or
moving the RMB-1085 in anything other than
the original packing material may result in
severe damage to your amplifier.
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.
Placement
The RMB-1085 generates heat as part of its
normal operation. The heat sinks and ventila-
tion openings in the amplifier are designed to
dissipate this heat. The ventilation slots in the
top cover must be unobstructed. There should
be 10 cm (4 inches) of clearance around the
chassis, and reasonable airflow through the
installation location, to prevent the amplifier
from overheating. Likewise, remember the
weight of the amplifier when you select an
installation location. Make sure that the shelf
or cabinet can support its weight.
