awards from the most respected reviewers in
the industry, who listen to music every day.
Their comments keep the company true to its
goal - the pursuit of equipment that is musical, reliable and affordable.
All of us at Rotel, thank you for buying this
product and hope it will bring you many years
of enjoyment.
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 performance 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 supply 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
9
English
and faithfully recreated. The RA-1060 circuitry
uses metal film resistors and polystyrene or
polypropylene capacitors in important signal
paths. All aspects of this design have been
examined to ensure the most faithful music
reproduction.
In addition the RA-1060 has independent input signal selectors for listening and recording. They allow you to listen to one signal source
while recording another.
The main functions of the RA-1060 are easy
to install and use. If you have experience with
other stereo systems, you shouldn’t find anything perplexing. Simply plug in the associated components and enjoy.
Unpacking
Carefully remove the RA-1060, the remote
control, and accessories from the shipping
carton. Save the shipping carton and all enclosed packing material for future use. Shipping or moving the unit in anything other than
the original packing material may result in severe damage.
Keep the original sales receipt. It is your best
record of the date of purchase, which you will
need in the event warranty service is ever
required.
quality. Ask your authorized Rotel dealer for
advice about component furniture and proper
installation of audio components.
The RA-1060 is supplied with an RR-AT92
remote control and must be placed where the
infrared signal from the remote can reach the
front panel Remote Sensor.
Cables
Keep power cords, digital cables, and audio
cables away from each other. This will minimize the chance of the audio signal cables
picking up noise or interference from the power
cords or digital cables. Using high quality,
shielded cables will also help to prevent noise
or interference. If you have any questions see
your authorized Rotel dealer for advice about
the best cable to use with your system.
Remote Control
The RA-1060 includes an RR-AT92 remote control that operates many of the controls of the
RA-1060. In addition, the remote operates
basic features of some Rotel CD players, DVD
players, and AM/FM tuners.
Audio Controls
Tuner Functions
The BAND, TUNING, and additional tuning
feature buttons operate Rotel tuners, after the
TUNER button on the remote has been pressed.
By default, the RR-AT92 operates the Rotel
RT-955 tuner. Alternatively, the remote can be
reprogrammed to operate the RT-940AX tuner.
This programming only needs to be done once:
To program for the RT-940AX: press the
POWER button and the 2 button simultaneously.
To program for the RT-955: press the
POWER button and the 1 button simultaneously.
Remote Sensor
The remote sensor receives infrared signals
from the remote control. Do not cover or block
the sensor. It must be unobstructed or the remote control will not work properly.
The operation of the remote sensor can also
be affected if it is exposed to bright sunlight
or certain types of lighting (such as halogen
lights) that emit infrared light. In addition remote control functions may not work reliably
if the batteries in the RR-AT92 are weak.
NOTE
: To use the remote, aim it at the remote
sensor on the front panel of the RA-1060.
Placement
Like all audio components that handle low-level
signals, the RA-1060 can be affected by its
environment. Avoid placing the RA-1060 on
top of other components. Also avoid routing
audio signal cables near power cords. This
will minimize the chance it will pick up hum
or interference.
The RA-1060 generates heat as part of its normal operation. The heat sinks and ventilation
openings in the amplifier are designed to dissipate this heat. The ventilation slots in the top
cover must be open. There should be 10 cm
(4 inches) of clearance around the chassis,
and reasonable airflow through the installation location, to prevent the amplifier from
overheating.
Remember the weight of the amplifier when
you select an installation location. Make sure
that the shelf or cabinet can support it. We
recommend installing the RA-1060 in furniture
designed to house audio components. Such
furniture is designed to reduce or suppress
vibration which can adversely affect sound
The RR-AT92 duplicates the basic audio functions of the RA-1060 front panel. When a
function is available on both the front panel
and the remote, a number (see front panel
illustration) and a letter (see remote control
illustration) are shown in the instructions. For
example, to change the volume level, you can

Remote Control Batteries
Two UM-4/AAA size batteries (supplied) must
be installed before the remote control can be
used. To install the batteries, remove the cover
on the back of the RR-AT92. Install the batteries as shown in the illustration in the battery
well. Test the control for proper operation, then
replace the cover. When the batteries become
weak the remote control won’t operate the
RA-1060 consistently. Installing fresh batteries
should eliminate the problem.
NOTE
: Remove the batteries from the remote
if it will not be used for a long period of time.
Do not leave run down batteries in the remote control; they can leak corrosive chemicals which will damage the unit.
RA-1060 Stereo Integrated Amplifier
10
Speaker Outputs
See Figure 2
The RA-1060 has two sets of speaker outputs,
labeled SPEAKER A and SPEAKER B. The
speaker outputs are controlled by the switch
on the front panel.
Speaker Impedance
If only one set of speakers will be used at any
given time, the speakers may have an impedance as low as 4 ohms. If there are times when
both the A and B speakers will be used, all
the speakers should have an impedance of 8
ohms or more. Speaker impedance ratings are
less than precise. In practice, very few loudspeakers will present any problems for the
RA-1060. See your authorized Rotel dealer
if you have any questions.
Speaker Wire
Use insulated two-conductor stranded wire to
connect the RA-1060 to the speakers. The size
and quality of the wire can have an audible
effect on the 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 – the 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 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 Connections
Turn off all the components in the system before connecting the speakers. The RA-1060
has color-coded speaker connectors on the
back panel. These connectors accept bare wire,
or connector lugs. (In non-EC markets, the connectors also accept dual banana plugs.)
Route the wire from the RA-1060 to the speakers. Give yourself enough slack so you can
move the components to allow access to the
speaker connectors. If you are using dual
banana plugs, connect them to the wires and
then plug into the backs of the binding posts.
The thumbscrews of the binding posts should
be screwed in all the way (clockwise).
If you are using terminal lugs, connect them
to the wires. If you are attaching bare wires
directly to the binding posts, separate the wire
conductors and strip the insulation from the
end of each conductor. Be careful not to cut
into the wire strands. Unscrew (turn counterclockwise) the binding post thumbscrews. Place
the connector lug or wire around the binding
post shaft. Turn the thumbscrews clockwise to
clamp the connector lug or wire firmly in place.
NOTE
: Be sure there are no loose wire strands
that could touch adjacent wires or connectors.
Signal Connections
The RA-1060 has line level inputs for source
components, connections for audio tape decks,
and preamp output connections to send signals to an external power amplifier.
NOTE
: To prevent loud, potentially damaging,
noises, make sure the system is turned off
when you make any signal connections.
Line Level Inputs
See Figure 2
The RA-1060 has four pair of conventional RCA
input connectors for line level components such
as CD players, video cassette recorders, tuners, Laser Disc players, or DVD players. These
inputs are labeled CD, TUNER, AUX 1, and
AUX 2.
The left and right channels are clearly labeled
and should be connected to the corresponding channels of the source component. The
left RCA connectors are white, the right con-
nectors are red. Use high quality RCA cables
for connecting input source components to the
RA-1060. Ask your authorized Rotel dealer
for advice about cables.
Recorder Connections
See Figure 2
Tape inputs and outputs can be connected to
any record/playback device that accepts standard line level analog input and output signals. Typically that will be a conventional tape
recorder. There are two sets of tape connections on the back panel, labelled TAPE 1 and
TAPE 2.
When connecting a recorder to the RA-1060,
the outputs of the recorder must be connected
to the tape inputs of the RA-1060. Similarly
the tape outputs of the RA-1060 must be connected to the inputs of the recorder. Be sure
to connect the left and right channels of each
device to the proper channels on the associated components. Use high quality connecting cables to prevent loss of sound quality.
NOTE
: The tape inputs can also be used for
standard playback-only source components,
omitting the output connections.
Preamp Outputs
The RA-1060 has a pair of preamp outputs
that can send a variable gain signal to an external power amp or signal processor. The
preamp outputs are standard RCA-type output connectors, compatible with the inputs of
most power amplifiers. Use high quality cables
and be sure to connect the left and right channel
outputs of the RA-1060 to the correct channels of the amplifier.
AC Power and Control
AC Power Input
Because of its relatively high power rating, the
RA-1060 can draw considerable current. Therefore, it should be plugged directly into a 2pin polarized wall outlet. Do not use an extension cord. A heavy duty multi-tap power
outlet strip may be used if it (and the wall outlet)
is rated to handle the current demanded by
the RA-1060 and all the other components
connected to it.

English
Your RA-1060 is configured at the factory for
the proper AC line voltage in the country where
you purchased it (USA: 115 volts/60Hz AC
or CE: 230 volts/50 Hz AC ). The AC line
configuration is noted on a decal on the back
panel. Plug the supplied cord into the AC INPUT
receptacle on the back of the unit.
NOTE
: Should you move your RA-1060 to an-
other country, it is possible to reconfigure your
amplifier for use on a different line voltage.
Do not attempt to perform this conversion yourself. Opening the enclosure of the RA-1060
exposes you to dangerous voltages. Consult
a qualified service person or the Rotel factory service department for information.
If you are going to be away from home for
an extended period of time such as a monthlong vacation, it is a sensible precaution to
unplug your audio and video components while
you are away.
POWER Button
Power Indicator
Press the front panel POWER button, to turn
the RA-1060 on. The power indicator light is
illuminated when the RA-1060 is on. Press
POWER button again to turn the RA-1060 off.
Once the RA-1060 has been turned on with
the front panel button, it can be switched between normal operating mode and standby
mode with the POWER button on the RR-AT92
remote control.
Auxiliary Power Outlet
(North American version)
The RA-1060 has a switched outlet on the back
panel. Power is available from this outlet when
the RA-1060 is turned on. This outlet can provide up to 200 watts and is appropriate for
supplying power to signal sources, such as CD
players, tuners, or tape decks. It should not
be used for power amplifiers. Connecting components that will draw more than 200 watts
to these outputs could damage the RA-1060.
NOTE
: Do not connect a power amplifier to
the auxiliary power outlet on the RA-1060.
Power amplifiers often draw more power than
this outlet can provide.
12V TRIGGER Connection
Several Rotel amplifiers can be turned on and
off using a 12 volt signal, provided by the 12V
TRIGGER connection. When the RA-1060 is
activated, a 12 volt DC signal appears at this
connector and will turn on an amplifier. When
the RA-1060 is turned off, the trigger signal
is interrupted and the external amplifier will
be turned off.
Audio Controls
The following controls are used to operate the
RA-1060.
VOLUME Control
Turn the front panel VOLUME control clockwise to increase the volume, or counterclockwise to decrease the volume. Alternatively, press
the VOL buttons on the remote control to adjust the volume up or down
CONTOUR Selector
Instead of conventional tone controls, the
RA-1060 has a front-panel CONTOUR control which selects one of five available settings.
Each setting provides a fixed frequency contour as follows:
OFF: the tone contour circuits are bypassed
to ensure the purest possible sound.
L-1: moderate increase in bass frequencies
(typically +3dB @ 100Hz).
L-2: more increase in bass frequencies (typically +4dB @ 100Hz).
H: moderate increase in high frequencies
(+3dB @ 10kHz).
LH: combination of L-2 bass and H high frequency increases.
LISTENING Selector
The setting of the LISTENING selector controls
which of the input signals goes to the main
outputs and onto the power amplifier – or, more
simply, which source is heard. Turn the front
panel control to the source you want to hear,
or press the corresponding button on the
RR-AT92 remote.
RECORDING Selector
The RA-1060 can record from any input source
(except TAPE 2) to a recorder connected to
TAPE 1 or TAPE 2 outputs. To select an input
source for recording, turn the RECORDING
control on the front-panel to the desired source.
This selection is independent of the source
selected for listening. While recording, you
may still select a different source using the
LISTENING selector.
If you have a three-head recorder or a DAT
recorder that allows simultaneous read and
write operation, you can monitor your recording
by setting the LISTENING switch to the TAPE
1 or TAPE 2 position.
NOTE
: If you select TAPE 1 with the RECORD-
ING control, the recording signal will only
be available at the TAPE 2 recording outputs,
not the TAPE 1 outputs. To dub a tape, select
TAPE 1 and record to the tape deck connected
to the TAPE 2 outputs.
MUTE Button
To temporarily mute the sound of the system
press the MUTE button on the RR-AT92 remote.
Press the button again to return the sound
volume to the original level. The LED in the
volume control will flash when the unit is muted.
PHONES Output
The PHONES output allows you to connect
headphones for private listening. This output
accepts standard stereo phone (1/4”) plugs.
If your headphones have another type of plug,
such as a 1/8” mini-plug, you will need an
adapter plug. Contact your authorized Rotel
dealer, to get the correct adapter plug.
NOTE
: Plugging in headphones does not cut
off the signal to the speakers. If desired, use
the SPEAKERS selector to turn off the signal
to the speakers for private listening.
RA-1060 Stereo Integrated Amplifier
12
SPEAKERS Selector
A four-position rotary switch on the front panel
determines which set of speakers, if any, is
active. Set the SPEAKER selector as follows:
OFF: No speakers will be heard. Use this
position when listening to headphones.
A: The speakers connected to the SPEAKER
A terminals will be heard.
B: The speakers connected to the SPEAKER
B terminals will be heard.
A+B: The speakers connected to both the
SPEAKER A and SPEAKER B terminals will be
heard.
Protection Circuit
A thermal protection circuit protects the amplifier against potential damage in the event
of extreme or faulty operating conditions. Unlike
many designs, the RA-1060’s protection circuit is independent of the audio signal and
has no impact on sonic performance. Instead,
the protection circuit monitors the temperature
of the output devices and shuts down the amplifier if temperatures exceed safe limits.
Fuse Replacement
If another electrical device works when plugged
into the power outlet, but the power indicator still will not light when the RA-1060 is
plugged into the wall outlet, it indicates that
the internal power fuse may have blown. If
you believe this has happened, contact your
authorized Rotel dealer to get the fuse replaced.
No Sound
Check the signal source to see if it is functioning properly. Make sure the cables from the
signal source to the RA-1060 inputs are connected properly. Be sure the LISTENING selector is set to the proper input. Be sure the
SPEAKERS selector is set to the proper position. Check the wiring between the RA-1060
and the speakers.

Should a faulty condition arise, the amplifier
will stop playing. If this happens, turn the
amplifier off, let it cool down for several minutes, and attempt to identify and correct the
problem. When you turn the amplifier back
on, the protection circuit will automatically reset.
Troubleshooting
Most difficulties in audio systems are the result of incorrect 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 RA-1060 refer to the suggestions for the following conditions:
Power Indicator Is Not Lit
The power indicator should be lit whenever
the RA-1060 is plugged into the wall power
outlet and the POWER switch is pushed in. If
it does not light, test the power outlet with another electrical device, such as a lamp. Be sure
the power outlet being used is not controlled
by a switch that has been turned off.
