Rotel’s new RMB-1585MKII 5-channel amplifier continues their heritage of producing high powered, perfectionist amplifiers for multi-channel systems.
Features
- Class AB Amplifier Design
- Dual Toroidal Transformers
- High-Quality Silt Foil Capacitors
- Variable-Speed Ultralow-Noise Fans
Upgraded Architecture
Following Rotel's updated MKII design architecture, the RMB-1585MKII incorporates both circuit and component upgrades in the power supply and amplifier stages achieving ultra-low distortion, high gain amplification and signal isolation rendering multi-channel audio with ultimate precision and exacting clarity.
Dual High-Current Toroidal Transformers
The Class AB RMB-1585MKII is built around two massive in-house manufactured high-current toroidal transformers designed to supply stable current to an array of 8 high-efficiency energy storage capacitors. This power supply architecture delivers rich, deep bass energy with absolute control of low frequencies even when driving the most demanding loudspeakers.
Switchable Mode
The RMB-1585MKII features a rear panel switch to select normal 5-channel mode, or Bi-Amp mode Channels 1+2 and Channels 4+5 are wired to receive the same input signal, allowing for simple bi-amplification. This unique configuration allows the use of a separate amplifier channel for the Left and Right channel High Frequency (HF) and Low Frequency (LF) drivers, resulting in improved dynamics, and enhanced resolution from compatible loudspeakers.
Ultralow-Noise Fans
To optimize cooling, the RMB-1585MKII is equipped with 4 thermostat-controlled, variable-speed ultralow-noise fans.
Home Theater Features
The RMB-1585MKII is purpose built for Home Theaters and custom installation. Convenient auto switching XLR Balanced and RCA inputs ensure compatibility with any AV Processor or Home Theater receiver preamp output, and a 12 V trigger input and output provides simplified power control. Detachable rack mount hardware is available for mounting in standard 19” equipment racks (sold separately).
