Getting Started
Thank you for purchasing the Rotel RA-1060
Stereo Integrated Amplifier. When used in a
high-quality music audio system, it will provide
years of musical enjoyment.
The RA-1060 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-1060 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
enables the RA-1060 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
