Phones Output
4
The Phones output allows you to connect
headphones for private listening. This output
accommodates standard stereo phone (1/4”)
plugs. If your headphones have another type
of plug, such as a 1/8” mini-plug, you will
need an adapter plug. Contact your authorized
Rotel dealer, to get the correct adapter plug.
Plugging in a set of headphones does not cut
off the signal to the outputs. Use the Speaker
Selector to turn off the speakers. The settings
of the Function Selector and the Tape Monitor
Control determines which source is heard. To
listen to or monitor the component connected
to the Tape input set the Monitor Control to
the Tape position. For all other inputs leave
the Monitor Control in the Source position
and select the source you want to listen to with
the front panel Function Selector or press the
corresponding source button on the remote
control.
NOTE: Because the sensitivity of speakers
and headphones can vary widely, always
reduce the volume level before connecting
or disconnecting headphones.

Balance Control
-
The Balance Control adjusts the left-to-right
balance of the sound output. Normally the
control should be left in the center position.
In some situations, typically when the main
listening position is not ideally centered be
-
tween the speakers, it may be necessary to
adjust the control to achieve proper left-to-right
balance. Turning the control counter-clockwise
shifts the sound balance to the left. Turning
the control clockwise shifts the sound balance
to the right.
Tone On/Off Switch
9
When the Tone Switch is in the Off position the
Bass and Treble Control (Tone Control) circuits
are bypassed to ensure the purest possible
sound. Leave the Tone Switch in the Off posi
-
tion unless you want to use the Tone Controls.
Turn the Tone Switch to the On position if you
want to adjust the Tone Controls.
Bass and Treble Controls

8
When the Tone Switch is in the On position,
turning the Bass and Treble Controls adjusts the
tone balance of the sound. Turn the Controls
clockwise to increase the bass or treble output.
Turn the Controls counterclockwise to decrease
the bass or treble output.
A properly set up high-performance audio
system produces the most natural sound with
little or no adjustment of the tone controls. Use
these controls sparingly. Be particularly careful
when turning the controls up (clockwise). This
increases the power output in the bass or treble
range, increasing the load on the amplifier
and speakers.
Function Control
q
s
The Function control selects the input signal
source. The signal selected by the Function
control is the one you hear, as long as the
Monitor control is set to the Source postion.
(See the following section.) The signal selected
by the Function control also goes to Preamp
Outputs and the Tape Outputs. Turn the front
panel Listening Selector to the source you want
to listen to. Or press the corresponding source
button on the remote control.
Monitor Control
=
When the Monitor Control is set to the Source
position, the signal you hear, and which goes
to the Preamp Outputs, is selected by the
Function Control. To listen to the signal from a
recorder connected to the Tape Inputs, set the
Monitor Control to the Tape position. When
the Monitor Control is in the Monitor position,
the signal from the Tape Input also goes to the
Preamp Outputs.
The signal that goes to the Tape Output is always
selected by the Function Control. When you
are recording with a unit that has monitoring
capabilities, you can listen to the sound just
recorded by setting the Monitor Control to the
Monitor position.
Mute Control

Remote Only
To temporarily mute the sound of the system
press the Mute Button on the RR-AT94 remote.
The volume Control LED blinks when the sound
is muted. Press the button again to return the
sound volume to the original level.
IR Inputs and Outputs
External Remote Input
p
This 3.5 mm mini-jack (labeled EXT REM IN)
receives command codes from an industry-
standard infrared receivers (Xantech, etc.)
located in the main listening room. This feature
is useful when the unit is installed in a cabinet
and the front-panel sensor is blocked. Consult
your authorized Rotel dealer for information
on external receivers and the proper wiring of
a jack to fit the mini-jack receptacle.
NOTE: The IR signals from the EXTERNAL
REMOTE IN jack can be relayed to source
components using external IR emitters or
hardwired connections from the IR OUT
jacks.
IR Output
[
The IR OUT jack sends IR signals received at the
EXTERNAL REM IN jack to an infrared emitter,
or to Rotel CD players, cassette decks, or tuners
with a compatible rear panel IR connector. The
allows you to use IR control features to oper
-
ate other components when the IR sensors on
those components are blocked for obstructed
by installation in a cabinet.
See your authorized Rotel dealer for informa
-
tion on IR repeater systems.
NOTE: The EXT REM IN jack located next
to the IR OUTPUT jack is for use with an
external IR sensor which duplicates the
front panel IR sensor.
