About Rotel
Our story began nearly 50 years ago. Over the decades, we have received
4
hundreds of awards for our products and satisfied hundreds of thousands
5
of people who take their entertainment seriously- like you!
5
Rotel was founded by a family whose passionate interest in music led
them to manufacture high-fidelity components of uncompromising quality.
7
Through the years, that passion has remained undiminished and the family
7
goal of providing exceptional value for audiophiles and music lovers,
7
regardless of their budget, is shared by all Rotel employees.
7
7
Rotel's engineers work as a close team, listening to, and fine tuning,
7
each new product until it reaches their exacting musical standards. They
are free to choose components from around the world in order to make
8
that product the best they can. You are likely to find capacitors from
8
the United Kingdom and Germany, semiconductors from Japan or the
8
United States, while toroidal power transformers are manufactured in
Rotel's own factory.

8
We all have concerns about our environment. And, as more and more
8
electronics are produced and later discarded, it is especially important for
8
a manufacturer to do all it can to engineer products that have a minimum
negative impact on landfill sites and water tables.

At Rotel, we are proud to do our part. We have reduced the lead content
9
in our electronics by using special RoHS solder, while our new Class D
9
(not digital) amplifiers are up to five times more efficient than our legacy
9
designs and still deliver power and performance. These products run
9
cool, give minimum wasted energy, are good for the environment and
give better sound too.

Finally, we have printed this brochure on recycled paper stock.

While we understand that these are small first steps, they are still important
10
ones. And we continue to pursue new methods and materials for a cleaner
10
and greener manufacturing process.

All of us at Rotel thank you for buying this product. We are sure it will
11
bring you many years of enjoyment.
