When the power switch is in the ON position, the remote control ON and
OFF buttons
A
may be used to activate the RC-1572. In Standby mode the
power LED remains illuminated, but the display is turned OFF.
12V TRIGGER Connection =
See Figure 6
Some audio components can be turned on automatically when they receive a
12V turn on "signal". The two 12V Trigger Outputs on the RC-1572 provide
the required signal. Connect compatible components to the RC-1572 with
a conventional 3.5mm mini mono plug cable. When the RC-1572 is in
standby mode or turned off, the trigger signal is disabled, so the components
controlled by it will be turned off.
NOTE: If you are using other units in the series with Rotel link, please
use the Rotel Link connection to turn the units on or off. Do not connect
both the Rotel Link and 12V trigger cables. The 12V trigger's power
on or off features will override the Rotel Link features.
Input Signal Connections
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.
Phono Input e and Ground Connection (GND)
See Figure 3
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. This will help prevent hum and noise.
Line Level Inputs e
See Figure 3
The CD, Tuner, and Aux inputs of the amplifier are analog "line level" inputs.
These inputs are for connecting components such as CD players or other
audio playback devices with an analog audio output.
The left and right channels are clearly labeled and should be connected to
the corresponding channels of the source component. The Left connectors
are white, the Right connectors are red. Use high quality RCA cables for
connecting input source components to the RC-1572. Ask your authorized
Rotel dealer for advice about cables.
Balanced (XLR) Inputs u
See Figure 4
A pair of balanced XLR inputs accept audio signals from CD player, Blu-ray
player or other source components with XLR outputs.
NOTE: You should choose only one method of analog connection from
a source component to RC-1572. Do not connect both the RCA and
XLR outputs of a source component to the RC-1572 at the same time.
Digital Inputs
See Figure 5
There are two sets of digital inputs labeled COAXIAL 1 and 2, OPTICAL
1 and 2. Connect the COAXIAL or OPTICAL PCM outputs of your source
component into these sockets. The digital signals will be decoded and
played by the RC-1572. The unit is capable of decoding PCM signals up
to 24 bit, 192kHz.
Output Connections
MONO SUB Output r
There are 2 connectors for mono subwoofer output to connect to a subwoofer.
These mono outputs are summed with both the left and right audio signal. They
are parallel outputs allowing 2 subwoofers to be connected to the RC-1572.
Preamp Output t
See Figure 3
A pair of RCA connectors supplies an analog output signal from the RC-1572
to a power amplifier with RCA unbalanced input connectors.
Balanced (XLR) Output y
9
See Figure 4
A pair of XLR balanced connectors supplies an analog output signal from
the RC-1572 to a power amplifier with XLR balanced input connectors.
NOTE: Do not connect both the RCA and XLR to the same amplifier
at the same time.
NOTE: Changes to the settings of the Volume, Balance or Tone controls
affect the signal from the XLR and Preamp outputs.
Headphone Output 6
The headphone output allows you to connect headphones for private listening.
This output accepts a standard 3.5mm (1/8") mini stereo headphone
connector. Plugging in a set of headphones does not cut off the signal to the
preamp outputs. In most instances you should turn off the power amplifier
when listening to headphones.
NOTE: Because the sensitivity of speakers and headphones can
vary widely, always reduce the volume level before connecting or
disconnecting headphones.
Remote Sensor 2
This remote sensor window receives IR commands from the remote control.
Please do not block this sensor.
Display 3
The front panel display shows the source selected, volume level and tone
settings. The display provides access to the setup and configuration menu
options of the amplifier.
