A family whose passionate interest in music led
them to manufacture high fidelity components
4
of uncompromising quality founded Rotel over
40 years ago. Through 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.
6
The engineers work as a close team, listening
to, and fine tuning each new product until it
6
reaches their exacting musical standards. They
6
are free to choose components from around
6
the world in order to make that product the
best they can. You are likely to find capacitors
6
from the United Kingdom and Germany, semi
conductors from Japan or the United States,
6
while toroidal power transformers are manu-
factured in Rotel's own factory.

Rotel's reputation for excellence has been
7
earned through hundreds of good reviews and
awards from the most respected reviewers in
the industry, who listen to music every day.

All of us at Rotel, thank you for buying this
7
product and hope it will bring you many hours
7
of enjoyment.
Getting Started
Thank you for purchasing the Rotel RA-05
8
Stereo Integrated Amplifier. When used in a
8
high-quality music audio system, it will provide
8
years of musical enjoyment.

The RA-05 is a full featured, high performance
8
component. All aspects of the design have been
8
optimized to retain the full dynamic range and
subtle nuances of your music. The RA-05 has
a highly regulated power supply incorporat-
8
ing a Rotel custom-designed toroidal power
8
transformer. This low impedance power supply
has ample power reserves, which enables the
9
RA-05 to easily reproduce the most demand-
ing audio signals. This type of design is more
expensive to manufacture, but it is better for
9
the music.

The 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 RA-05 circuitry
uses metal film resistors and polystyrene or
polypropylene capacitors in important signal
paths. All aspects of this design have been
examined to ensure the most faithful music
reproduction.
The main functions of the RA-05 are easy to
install and use. If you have experience with
other stereo systems, you shouldn't find any-
thing perplexing. Simply plug in the associated
components and enjoy.
The RR-AT94 Remote
Control
Some functions can be done with either the front
panel controls, or the supplied RR-AT94 remote
control. When these operations are described,
the call out number for both controls is shown.
For example, you can adjust the volume with
either the front panel Volume control
the remote control buttons
See the "IR Inputs and Output" section for more
information on ways to expand the IR control
capabilities of your system.
NOTE: Remove the batteries from the
remote control if it will not be used for a
long period of time. Do not leave run down
batteries in the remote control. Exhausted
batteries can leak corrosive chemicals which
will damage the unit.
