About Rotel
Our story began 50 years ago. Over the decades, we have received
hundreds of awards for our products and satisfied hundreds of thousands
3
of people who take their entertainment seriously - like you.
4
Rotel was founded by a family whose passionate interest in music
led them to manufacture high-fidelity components of uncompromising
6
quality.
6
6
Through the years, that passion has remained undiminished and the
family goal of providing exceptional value for audiophiles and music
6
lovers, regardless of their budget, is shared by all Rotel employees.
6
Rotel's engineers work as a close team, listening to, and fine tuning,
7
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 that product the best they can. You are likely to find
capacitors from the United Kingdom and Germany, semiconductors
from Japan or the United States, while toroidal power transformers
are manufactured in Rotel's own factory.
7
7
We all have concerns about our environment. And, as more and more
7
electronics are produced and later discarded, it is especially important
7
for 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
8
8
content in our electronics by using special ROHS solder, while our
new Class D (not digital) amplifiers are up to five times more efficient
8
than our legacy designs and still deliver power and performance.
8
These products run cool, give minimum wasted energy, are good for
8
the environment and give better sound too.
8
Finally, we have printed this brochure on recycled paper stock.
While we understand that these are small first steps, they are still
9
9
important ones. And we continue to pursue new methods and materials
for a cleaner and greener manufacturing process.

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