About Rotel
Our story began over 60 years ago. Over the decades, we have received
hundreds of awards for our products and satised hundreds of thousands
of people who take their entertainment seriously – like you!
Rotel was founded by a family whose passionate interest in music led them
to manufacture high-delity components of uncompromising quality. Through
the years, that passion has remained undiminished and the family goal of
providing exceptional value for audiophiles and music lovers, regardless
of their budget, is shared by all Rotel employees.
Rotel’s engineers work as a close team, listening to, and ne tuning, each
new product until it reaches their exacting musical standards. They are
free to choose components from around the world in order to make that
product the best they can. You are likely to nd capacitors from the United
Kingdom and Germany, semiconductors from Japan or the United States,
while toroidal power transformers are manufactured in Rotel’s own factory.
We all have concerns about our environment. And, as more and more
electronics are produced it is especially important for a manufacturer to do all
it can to engineer products that have a minimum impact on the environment.
At Rotel, we are proud to do our part. We have reduced the lead content
in our products by using special lead-free ROHS solder and components.
Our engineers continually strive to improve power supply efciency without
compromise to quality. When in standby mode Rotel products use minimal
power to meet global Standby Power Consumption requirements.
The Rotel factory is also doing their part to help the environment through
constant improvements to product assembly methods for a cleaner and
greener manufacturing processes.
All of us at Rotel thank you for buying this product. We are sure it will bring
you many years of enjoyment.
About the RCD-1572MKII
Simply stated, the unit is designed to do one thing—deliver the most detailed,
nuanced sound from every disc. The unit will faithfully reproduce all that is
recorded on the disc. While the unit was under development, the design team
went far beyond the usual measurable technical performance characteristics.
Listening panels spent hundreds of hours ne tuning the audio performance,
choosing the components that produced the best sound, that would “release
the emotion in the music”. Whatever the artist and recording engineers put
on the disc, the unit will deliver.
That said, the unit does feature some impressive hardware. Digital to Analog
conversion is processed with a state of the art Texas Instruments 32 bit DAC.
All this, combined with Rotel’s Balanced Design, ensures the unit will deliver
the highest level of audio performance. When used in a high-quality audio
system, your Rotel CD player will provide years of enjoyment.
