3. bring you many years of enjoyment A Word About Watts The RMB 1512 power output is quoted as 100 watts for each channel when all twelve channels are operating together at full power Rotel has chosen to specify the power output in this way because in Rotel s experience it gives the truest value of the receiver or amplifier s power capability When comparing specifications for different products you should be aware that power output is often specified in other ways so you may not be comparing like with like For example the power output may be quoted with only one channel operating giving a higher maximun figure the highly regulated power supplies of the Rotel Classe D amplifiers ensures that they will produce the full spcified power output to one or all channels A loudspeaker s impendance rating indicates the electrical resistance or load it offers when connected to the amplifier usaally 8 ohms or 4 ohms The lower the impedance the more power the speaker will need In effect a 4 ohm speaker will require twice as much power as an 8 ohm speaker So ideally the amplifier should be give double the power into a 4 ohm load a rating of 100 watts into an 8 ohm load should become 200 watts into 4 ohms Using lower impedance speakers makes greater emands on the amplifier s power supply because it will be drawingmore current and giving off more heat However Rotel amplifiers are designed to work into any speaker impedance bet

5. performance of the system Standard speaker wire will work but can result in lower output or diminished bass response particularly over longer distances In general heavier wire will improve the sound For best performance you may want to consider special high quality speaker cables Your authorized Rotel dealer can help in the selection of cables for your system Polarity and Phasing The polarity or positive negative orientation of the connections for every speaker and amplifier connection must be consistent so all the speakers will be in phase If the polarity of one connection is mistakenly reversed bass output will be very weak and stereo imaging degraded All wire is marked so you can identify the two conductors There may be ribs or a stripe on the insulation of one conductor The wire may have clear insulation with different color conductors copper and silver There may be polarity indications printed on the insulation Identify the positive and negative conductors and be consistent with every speaker and amplifier connection Speaker Wire Connection s See Figure 2 Route the wires from the RMB 1512 to the speakers Give yourself enough slack so you can move the components to allow access to the speaker connectors The RMB 1512 has two pair of color coded speaker connectors for each group of amplifier channels one for the left speaker the other for the right speaker Labels above the connectors show the proper connections fo
6. speaker connectors labeled RIGHT Follow the labels printed above the connectors Make sure that the positive terminal of the speaker is connected to the terminal on the amplifier Make sure that the negative terminal of the speaker is connected to the terminal of the amplifier Note Be sure there are no loose wire strands that could touch adjacent wires or connectors Plug connection Connect your speaker wires as shown in the illustration Insert the wire into the open and turn the screw to clamp the wire in place Be sure to keep the polarity of the connections correct 10 Troubleshooting Most difficulties in audio systems are the result of poor or wrong connections or improper control settings If you encounter problems isolate the area of the difficulty check the control settings determine the cause of the fault and make the necessary changes If you are unable to get sound from the RMB 1512 refer to the suggestions for the following conditions Standby Power Indicator Is Not Lit No main power to the RMB 1512 Check AC power connections at the amplifier and the AC outlet Check the front panel power switch Make sure that it is set to the ON position If using signal sensing auto power on make sure that a signal is present at the inputs If using 12V trigger power on make sure that a trigger signal is present at rear panel 12V TRIG IN connector No Sound If the amp is getting AC power but is producing no s
