RB-06 Stereo Power Amplifier

Placement

Like all audio components that handle low-

level signals, the RB-06 can be affected by

its environment. Avoid placing the RB-06 on

top of other components. Also avoid routing

audio signal cables near power cords. This

will minimize the chance it will pick up hum

or interference.

The RB-06 generates heat as part of its normal

operation. The heat sinks and ventilation open

ings 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 reason

able airﬂow through the installation location,

to prevent the ampliﬁer from overheating.

Remember the weight of the ampliﬁer when

you select an installation location. Make sure

that the shelf or cabinet can support it. We

recommend installing the RB-06 in furniture

designed to house audio components. Such

furniture is designed to reduce or suppress

vibration which can adversely affect sound

quality. Ask your authorized Rotel dealer for

advice about component furniture and proper

installation of audio components.

Cables

Be sure to keep the power cords, digital signal

cables and regular audio signal cables in

your installation away from each other. This

will minimize the chance of the regular audio

signal cables picking up noise or interference

from the power cords or digital cables. Using

only high quality, shielded cables will also help

to prevent noise or interference from degrad

ing the sound quality of your system. If you

have any questions see your authorized Rotel

dealer for advice about the best cable to use

with your system.

AC Power and Control

AC Power Input

The RB-06 is supplied with the proper AC

power cord. Use only this cord or an exact

equivalent. Do not use an extension cord. A

heavy duty multi-tap power outlet strip may

be used, but only if it is rated to handle the

current demand of the RB-06.

Be sure the Power Switch on the front panel of

the RB-06 is turned off. Then, plug one end of

the cord into the AC power connector

the back panel of the ampliﬁer. Plug the other

end into an appropriate AC outlet.

Your RB-06 is conﬁgured at the factory for the

proper AC line voltage in the country where you

purchased it (USA: 115 volts/60 Hz , Europe:

120 volts/60 Hz). The AC line conﬁguration is

noted on a label on the back panel.

NOTE: Should you move your RB-06 to an-

other country, it is possible to configure your

amplifier for use on a different line voltage.

Do not attempt to perform this conversion

yourself. Opening the enclosure of the RB-

06 exposes you to dangerous voltages.

Consult a qualified technician or the Rotel

factory service department for information.

If you are going to be away from home for

an extended period of time, it is a sensible

precaution to unplug your ampliﬁer.

Power Switch and

Indicator

The Power Switch is located on the front panel.

To turn the ampliﬁer on (or to activate either of

the optional automatic power-on modes), push

the switch in. The LED indicator above the switch

will light, indicating that the ampliﬁer is turned

on. To turn the ampliﬁer off, push the button

again and return it to the out position.

Trigger ON/OFF

Mode Selector

The ampliﬁer provides the option for manual

or automatic power on/off operation. These

modes are selectable using a toggle switch on

the back panel.

With the switch in the 12V TRIGGER ON posi

tion, the ampliﬁer is turned on automatically

when a 12V trigger signal is present at the 3.5

mm Jack of TRIGGER IN on the rear panel. The

ampliﬁer will go into standby mode if the 12V

signal is not present. The front panel POWER

SWITCH overrides this function. It must be ON

for the 12V trigger to work. Turning the switch

OFF cuts power to the ampliﬁer, regardless of

whether or not a trigger signal is present.

12V Trigger Input

and Output

The jack labeled IN is for connecting the 3.5mm

Plug/Cable carrying a 12V trigger signal to turn

the ampliﬁer on and off. To use this feature the

toggle switch must be set to the ON position.

This input accepts any control signal (AC or

DC) ranging from 3 volts to 30 volts.

The jack labeled OUT is for connecting an

other 3.5mm plug/cable to provide a 12V

trigger signal to other components. The 12V

output signal is available whenever a 12V

trigger signal is applied to the IN connector.

Input Signal Connection

[See Figure 2 for normal stereo wiring

illustration.]

The RB-06 has conventional RCA type input

connectors, the type found on nearly all audio

equipment.

Note:

To prevent loud noises that neither

you nor your speakers will appreciate, make

sure the amplifier is turned off when you

make any signal connections.

Select a high quality pair of audio intercon-

nect cables. Connect the left channel output of

your preamp to the left channel input on the

RB-06. Connect the right channel output of your

preamp to the right channel input.
