Getting Started
Thank you for purchasing the Rotel RA-1062
Stereo Integrated Amplifier. When used in a
high-quality music audio system, it will pro-
vide years of musical enjoyment.
The RA-1062 is a full featured, high perfor-
mance component. All aspects of the design
have been optimized to retain the full dynamic
range and subtle nuances of your music. The
RA-1062 has a highly regulated power sup-
ply incorporating a Rotel custom-designed
toroidal power transformer and custom-made
slit foil capacitors. This low impedance power
supply has ample power reserves, which en-
ables the RA-1062 to easily reproduce the most
demanding audio signals. This type of design
is more expensive to manufacture, but it is better
for the music.
The printed circuit boards are designed with
Symmetrical Circuit Traces. This insures that
the precise timing of the music is maintained
and faithfully recreated. The RA-1062 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.
In addition the RA-1062 has independent input
signal selectors for listening and recording.
They allow you to listen to one signal source
while recording another.
The main functions of the RA-1062 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 associ-
ated components and enjoy.
Unpacking
Carefully remove the RA-1062, the remote
control, and accessories from the shipping
carton. Save the shipping carton and all en-
closed packing material for future use. Ship-
ping or moving the unit in anything other than
the original packing material may result in
severe damage.
Keep the original sales receipt. It is your best
record of the date of purchase, which you will
need in the event warranty service is ever
required.
Placement
Like all audio components that handle low-
level signals, the RA-1062 can be affected by
its environment. Avoid placing the RA-1062
on top of other components. Also avoid rout-
ing audio signal cables near power cords. This
will minimize the chance it will pick up hum
or interference.
The RA-1062 generates heat as part of its
normal operation. The heat sinks and venti-
lation openings in the amplifier are designed
to dissipate this heat. The ventilation slots in
the top cover must be open. There should be
10 cm (4 inches) of clearance around the
chassis, and reasonable airflow through the
installation location, to prevent the amplifier
from overheating.
