RC-1550 Stereo Control Ampliﬁer

STANDBY Switch and Indicator

and Remote POWER Switch

The STANDBY switch

is located on the left side of the front panel.

To use the RC-1550, press the STANDBY switch. The switch button

will remain in its IN position and the ring around the Standby switch

will light. In addition the indicators above the selected Listening input

button

will light.

When the STANDBY switch is pushed in, you can turn the RC-1550

on, or put it in Standby mode, with the POWER button

of the

RR-AT94 remote control.

When the RC-1550 is in Standby mode, pressing one of the

RR-AT94 Input Selector buttons

turns the unit on and selects the

corresponding input.

If you will not be using the RC-1550 for a long period of time, press

the front panel STANDBY switch to turn it Off. The button will return to

its Out position and all the front panel indicator lights will turn off.

Note: Be sure to set the Volume control to the minimum (full

counterclockwise) position before you push in the STANDBY switch.

Input Signal Connections

and

[See Figure 3.]

The RC-1550 has conventional RCA-type connectors for all inputs.

Note: To prevent loud noises that neither you nor your speakers will

appreciate, make sure the system is turned off when you make any

signal connections.

Line Level Inputs

The CD, Tuner, and Aux inputs of the RC-1550 are “line level” inputs.

These are for connecting the analog outputs from components such

as CD players, DVD players, video disc recorders, tuners for audio or

video, or VCRs.

The Left and Right channels are clearly labeled and should be

connected to the corresponding channels of the source component.

The Left RCA connectors are white, the Right connectors are red. Use

high quality RCA cables for connecting input source components to the

RC-1550. Ask your authorized Rotel dealer for advice about cables.

Phono Input

and Ground Connection

Plug the cable from the turntable into the appropriate left and right

phono inputs. If the turntable has a “ground” wire connect it to the

screw terminal to the left of the Phono inputs. It will help prevent hum

and noise.

Recorder Connections

The Tape 1 and Tape 2 inputs and outputs can be connected to any

record/playback device that accepts standard line level analog input

and output signals. Typically that will be a conventional tape recorder.

When connecting a recorder to the RC-1550, remember that the

outputs of the recorder must be connected to the tape inputs of the

RC-1550. Similarly the tape outputs of the RC-1550 must be connected

to the inputs of the recorder. As with other sources be sure to connect

the Left and Right channels of each device to the proper channels on

the associated components. Use high quality connecting cables to

prevent loss of sound quality.

Output Connections

Most RCA-type output connectors are compatible with most power

ampliﬁers. As always, use high quality cables and be sure to connect

the Left and Right channel outputs of the RC-1550 to the correct

channels of the ampliﬁer.

Note: There are two sets of RCA outputs on the RC-1550. The second

set of outputs may be used in custom system configurations to drive

a second power amplifier or to supply a signal to a special signal

processor.

IR Inputs and Outputs

External Remote Input

This 3.5 mm mini-jack (labeled EXT REM IN) receives command codes

from an industry-standard infrared receivers 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 hard wired

connections from the IR OUT jacks.

IR Output

The IR OUT 1 and 2 jacks send IR signals received at the EXTERNAL

REM IN jack to an infrared emitter placed in front of a source

component or to other Rotel components with compatible rear panel IR

input connectors.

This output is used to allow IR signals to pass along IR signals from

a remote control when the sensors on the source components are

blocked by installation in a cabinet.

See your authorized Rotel dealer for information on IR repeater

systems.

NOTE: The EXT REM IN jack located next to these jacks is for use with

an external IR sensor duplicating the front panel IR sensor and located

in the primary zone.
