User manual ROTEL RA-1070

[. . . ] Heed all warnings and safety information in these instructions and on the product itself. WARNING: The rear panel power cord connector is the mains power disconnect device. The apparatus must be located in an open area that allows access to the cord connector. The unit must be connected to a power supply only of the type and voltage specified on the rear panel. [. . . ] Save the RA-1070 shipping carton and all enclosed packing material for future use. Shipping or moving the RA-1070 in anything other than the original packing material may result in severe damage to your amplifier. Fill out and send in the owner's registration card packed with the RA-1070. It is your best record of the date of purchase, which you will need in the event warranty service is ever required. The PLAY, STOP, PAUSE, TRACK and RANDOM buttons, and NUMERIC keys (0-10) operate many Rotel CD players after the CD button on the remote has been pressed. Like all audio components that handle low-level signals, the RA-1070 can be affected by its environment. This programming only needs to be done once: The speaker outputs are controlled by the switch on the front panel. The operation of the remote sensor can also be affected if it is exposed to bright sunlight or certain types of lighting (such as halogen lights) that emit infrared light. In addition remote control functions may not work reliably if the batteries in the RR-AT94 are weak. If only one set of speakers will be used at any given time, the speakers may have an impedance as low as 4 ohms. If there are times when both the A and B speakers will be used, all the speakers should have an impedance of 8 ohms or more. Because of its relatively high power rating, the RA-1070 can draw considerable current. Therefore, it should be plugged directly into a 2-pin polarized wall outlet. A heavy duty multi-tap power outlet strip may be used if it (and the wall outlet) is rated to handle the current demanded by the RA-1070 and all the other components connected to it. Your RA-1070 is configured at the factory for the proper AC line voltage in the country where you purchased it (USA: 120 volts/60Hz AC or CE: 230 volts/50 Hz AC). Plug the supplied cord into the AC INPUT receptacle on the back of the unit. The RA-1070 has three pair of conventional RCA input connectors for line level components such as CD players, video cassette recorders, tuners, Laser Disc players, or DVD players. The left and right channels are clearly labeled and should be connected to the corresponding channels of the source component. use high quality RCA cables for connecting input source components to the RA-1070. Tape inputs and outputs can be connected to any record/playback device that accepts standard line level analog input and output signals. There are two sets of tape connections on the back panel, labelled TAPE 1 and TAPE 2. When connecting a recorder to the RA-1070, the outputs of the recorder must be connected to the tape inputs of the RA-1070. [. . . ] While recording, you may still select a different source using the LISTENING selector. If you have a three-head recorder or a DAT recorder that allows simultaneous read and write operation, you can monitor your recording by setting the LISTENING switch to the TAPE 1 or TAPE 2 position. Note: If you select TAPE 1 with the RECORDING control, the recording signal will only be available at the TAPE 2 recording outputs, not the TAPE 1 outputs. Press the button again to return the sound volume to the original level. [. . . ]
