Getting Started
Thank you for purchasing the Rotel RLC-1050
Power Distributor. We are confident that the
RLC-1050 will enhance the performance of
your audio system for years to come.
The RLC-1050 solves several problems that
are common in multi-components systems. The
power control features of the RLC-1050 make
it easy to turn on and off all the components
in the system. Furthermore each outlet has
separate turn-on delay and turn-off delay
controls. The delay for each control can be
adjusted from 1 to 30 seconds. By setting the
controls so that the system components turn
on and off in the proper sequence, turn-on
and turn-off thumps noises can be prevented.
The RLC-1050 can be set to work with either
115V/60Hz or 230/50Hz AC power systems.
It has universal power outlets that can accept
virtually any kind of power plug.
The power outlets are also heavily filtered to
minimize the potentially damaging effects of
power line spikes.
The RLC-1050 also ensures efficient compo-
nent operation by isolating them from perfor-
mance-robbing lower level surges, RFI, and
EMI. The RLC-1050 is proof that Rotel’s Bal-
anced Design approach extends to your whole
system.
