About Rotel
3
Our story began over 60 years ago. Over the decades, we have received
4
hundreds of awards for our products and satisfied hundreds of thousands
4
of people who take their entertainment seriously – like you.
5
Rotel was founded by a family whose passionate interest in music led
them to manufacture high-fidelity components of uncompromising
8
quality. Through the years, that passion has remained undiminished
8
and the family goal of providing exceptional value for audiophiles and
8
music lovers, regardless of their budget, is shared by all Rotel employees.
8
8
Rotel's engineers work as a close team, listening to, and fine tuning, each
8
new product until it reaches their exacting musical standards. They are
free to choose components from around the world in order to make
8
that product the best they can. You are likely to find capacitors from
9
the United Kingdom and Germany, semiconductors from Japan or the
9
United States, while toroidal power transformers are manufactured in
Rotel's own factory.
9
9
We all have concerns about our environment. And, as more and more
electronics are produced it is especially important for a manufacturer
9
to do all it can to engineer products that have a minimum impact on
9
the environment.
9
At Rotel, we are proud to do our part. We have reduced the lead content
in our products by using special lead-free ROHS solder and components.
10
Our engineers continually strive to improve power supply efficiency
10
without compromise to quality. When in standby mode Rotel products use
minimal power to meet global Standby Power Consumption requirements.
10
10
The Rotel factory is also doing their part to help the environment through
10
constant improvements to product assembly methods for a cleaner and
10
greener manufacturing processes.
All of us at Rotel thank you for buying this product. We are sure it will
bring you many years of enjoyment.
