ROTEL 06 & 15 SERIES

DESIGNED FOR THE REAL WORLD

Much of Rotel's success can be attributed to their fundamental engineering philosophy called
Balanced Design Concept,
which is a disciplined synthesis of physics, electronics, and mechanical engineering. Balanced Design Concept revolves around three major areas: parts selection, circuit topology, and critical evaluation. These aspects influence final sound quality significantly and illustrate Balanced Design's holistic approach to product development.

The new 15 series represents the culmination of nearly 50 years of Rotel expertise in engineering and manufacturing electronic components for hi fi, home theater, and multizone audio systems.

TUNER - 06 Series

RT-09 Digital Internet Tuner
The RT-09 is more than just an Internet tuner. Along with FM and DAB it is a digital gateway to all that streaming media has to offer. In addition a front panel USB input is provided for direct digital connection of an iPod or other USB class 2 devices. All digital sources bypass their typically inexpensive analog output stages in favor of the RT-09’s highly regarded Wolfson 24 bit/192kHz DAC and highend analog stage. Together, these features ensure that the listening options are virtually limitless and any music source is reproduced to the highest quality possible.

At present there are over 15,000 Internet radio stations available and in order to keep favorite stations handy, the
RT-09 includes 30 programmable presets for instantaneous access to FM, DAB and Internet broadcasts. The RT-09 also streams music files from a PC using Windows Media Player 11 or 12 over a Wi-Fi or wired LAN Ethernet connection, and can be controlled via bi-directional RS-232, as well as discrete IR. What is just as remarkable as the flexibility, performance and technology of the RT-09 is its affordability for such a sophisticated component. The RT-09 continues the Rotel tradition of offering value for money that is second to none.

RDG stands for Rotel Digital Gateway. The RDG-1520 certainly opens the gate wide for all that streaming media can offer, plus it includes an FM radio and offers a USB input for direct digital connection of an iPod or other USB class 2 devices, bypassing the inexpensive analog output stage in favor of our Wolfson 24 bit/192kHz DAC and high-end analog stage. The receiver’s tuner section includes terrestrial FM and Internet radio, plus premium music sources* like Pandora and SirriusXM, so your listening options are virtually limitless! There are presently over 15,000 Internet radio stations listed. In order to help keep favorite stations handy, the RCX-1500 includes 30 possible presets for instantaneous access to both FM and Internet broadcasts.

AV RECEIVERS 15 SERIES

RSX-1550  7.1 Home Theater Receiver

The RSX-1550 provides virtually all of the same features found on the RSX-1560 but with a 5 x 100 watt per channel output design. If your needs grow, its on-board seven channel processing enables you to add an RB-1562 (2 x 100 watt per channel) power amplifier for full 7.1 operation. No obsolescent designs here! The RSX-1550 is a Class AB design built on over 40 years manufacturing experience. It includes HDMI 1.3 connections and the same ability to handle the new audio codecs by Dolby and dts as the RSX-1560 and also includes the same multizone audio and custom installation features. If you are considering a five-channel theater now but may want to grow into a larger system later on, this is the surround receiver for you.

*Note – The RSX-1550 is not a standard U height product but it can be rack mounted and remotely controlled via RS-232, IR, or 12 volt (depending on model) for complete stealth operation.

HOME CINEMA POWER AMPLIFIERS 15 SERIES

RMB-1565 5-Channel Power Amplifier 

The RMB-1565 is designed around the same superb Class D design as the RMB-1575 but with a slightly smaller output of 5 x 100 watts per channel into 8 ohms. It is the perfect choice for medium to large home theater rooms. Plus, just like its bigger brother, it will double its output with more difficult lower impedance loads, thereby providing 5 x 200 watts into 4 ohms. It also includes all of the custom installation features such as 12 volt triggers, and “U height” dimensions that are demanded of today’s modern power amplifiers.

RMB-1575 5-Channel Power Amplifier 
Larger listening environments require prodigious amounts of power to deliver room filling sound. That’s exactly what you get with Rotel’s 5 x 250 watt power amplifier. It is important to note that this specification is provided with “all channels driven at 8 ohms” unlike some other manufacturers who stretch the ratings by listing them at 6 ohms or with only one or two channels being driven. Rotel’s RMB-1575 is a true high current audiophile design and can double its output to 5 x 500 watts at 4 ohms with all channels driven. Pure muscle alone, however, does not make a superb amplifier. The RMB-1575 excels at extracting all of the smallest audio details from both music and movie soundtracks alike. Best of all, even with its high power capability the RMB-1075 runs relatively cool, extending the components lifespan thanks to its innovative Class D design.

CUSTOM INSTALL POWER AMPLIFIERS 15 SERIES

RMB-1506  6-Channel Custom Installation Amplifier
This amplifier is perfect for less elaborate multizone audio systems and can be mated with any of our surround receivers or our preamp/processor to add music throughout three additional living areas or “zones” of your home. You can also add another RMB-1506 for larger multizone applications that don’t need the power output of the RMB-1512. As with all Rotel multichannel amplifiers it includes all of the most wanted custom installation features.

*Note – all Rotel 15 series components may be rack mounted and remotely controlled via RS-232, IR, or 12 volt (depending on model) for complete stealth operation.

RMB-1512 12-Channel Custom Installation Amplifier

No longer do you need to purchase several large amplifiers to obtain a high performance multizone audio system. The RMB-1512 features an advanced Class D design that provides plenty of power (12 x 100 watts into 8 ohms) for the most demanding mulitzone audio systems, but never runs the danger of overheating itself or other electronic components placed in the same vicinity. The RMB-1512 features everything needed for remote operation and custom installation including 12 volt trigger signal sensing, input bussing, sum-to-mono, buffered link output, front panel attenuation control, five-way binding posts and screw terminals.

15 SERIES DIGITAL MUSIC CENTRE

RCX-1500 Internet, FM, DAB, CD, 2 x 100w receiver
The RCX-1500 CD player is the most versatile component Rotel have ever offered. Although it is an “all in one” model, compromise is not part of the design. In fact, the RCX-1500 has been engineered using components that you would find in more expensive separates. The DAC is the high-performance Wolfson with 24 bit / 192kHz decoding. The amplifier uses the innovative Class D design that is highly efficient, runs cooler than older A/B designs and provides plenty of voltage and current to easily drive lower impedance speakers down to 4 ohms. With 100 watts per channel available, feel free to hook up large floor-standing loudspeakers to the RCX-1500. The RCX-1500 is also a very high quality CD player, based on the outstanding RCD-1520. A front panel USB input for direct digital connection of an iPod or other USB class 2 devices is provided, too. The receiver’s tuner section includes both terrestrial FM and Internet radio, plus access to premium music services* like Pandora and SirriusXM, so your listening options are virtually limitless! There are presently over 15,000 Internet radio stations listed. And in order to help keep your favourite stations handy, the RCX-1500 includes 30 possible presets for instantaneous access to both FM and Internet broadcasts. The RCX-1500 supports both wired and WiFi Ethernet connections. The RCX-1500, like the RDG-1520, supports UPnP technology and has been optimized for use with Windows Media Player 11 and 12. UPnP devices are “plug-and-play” in that when connected to a network they automatically announce their network address and supported device and services types, enabling clients that recognize those types to immediately begin using the device. Supported codecs include RealAudio®, WMA, MP3, AAC & AAC+ (non DRM), AU, WAV and AIFF. As if all that isn’t enough, an RS-232 port provides system control and bi-directional feedback. The RCX-1500 is without doubt, one of the most flexible, high performance, single chassis stereo components available today. It may be the only stereo component you will ever need.
