About Rotel

Our story began nearly 50 years ago. Over the decades, we have received hundreds of awards for our products and satisfied 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-fidelity 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 fine 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 find 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 and later discarded, it is especially important for a manufacturer to do all it can to engineer products that have a minimum negative impact on landfill sites and water tables.

At Rotel, we are proud to do our part. We have reduced the lead content in our electronics by using special RoHS solder, while our new Class D (not digital) amplifiers are up to five times more efficient than our legacy designs and still deliver power and performance. These products run cool, give minimum wasted energy, are good for the environment and give better sound too.

Finally, we have printed this brochure on recycled paper stock.

While we understand that these are small first steps, they are still important ones. And we continue to pursue new methods and materials for a cleaner and greener manufacturing process.

All of us at Rotel thank you for buying this product. We are sure it will bring you many years of enjoyment.

A Few Precautions

Please read this manual carefully. In addition to basic installation and operating instructions, it provides valuable information on various RCX-1500 system configurations as well as general information that will help you get optimum performance from your system. Please contact your authorized Rotel dealer for answers to any questions you might have. In addition, all of us at Rotel welcome your questions and comments

Save the RCX-1500 shipping carton and all enclosed packing material for future use. Shipping or moving the RCX-1500 in anything other than the original packing material may result in severe damage to your unit.

Fill out and send in the owner's registration card packed with the RCX-1500. Also be sure to 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.

Placement

Place the RCX-1500 on a solid, level surface away from sunlight, heat, moisture, or vibration.

Don't stack other components or objects on top of the RCX-1500. Don't let any liquid fall into the unit.

Note the weight and size of the RCX-1500. If placing the unit on a shelf, cabinet or rack, make sure the full weight of the RCX-1500 can be supported.

The RCX-1500 generates heat during normal operation. Do not block ventilation openings. Allow a minimum of 10 cm or 4 inches of unobstructed space around the unit. If installed in a cabinet, make sure that there is adequate ventilation.

Overview – the Rotel internet radio tuners/digital gateway products.

This product does not operate without the Wi-Fi or Wired dongle being connected. We recommend that you read this introduction first. FAQs will be found on the Rotel website www.rotel.com/NA/support/FAQ.htm

This Rotel product brings together conventional radio reception facilities for FM and DAB, plus from the world of computers the ability to access literally thousands of radio stations available on the internet. In addition to this, this new range of Rotel tuners/digital gateways offers the facility to interface with personal audio players (iPods and mp3 players) and your music files stored on a network server.

These notes expand on the 'quick start' notes later in this manual.

Firstly, it does not matter if a wired or Wi-Fi network is not available to use – however it is essential that the Wi-Fi or wired dongle is inserted into its socket on the rear panel of the product for it to work. Use an extension cable to relocate the dongle if space is limited at the rear of the tuner.

Each time that the product is turned on, it will be locked into search mode for about 15/20 seconds. Once this has been accomplished other radio modes can be used.

The USB input is active from turn on.

DAB and FM radio

This is the most conventional part of the product and if you have previous experience of tuning, memorizing and selecting radio stations from the present DAB and FM radio services you will be familiar with the way the tuner is operated to receive these services. All of this is explained under relevant quick start sections. Keep in mind to select the antenna (aerial) input socket to use, find this option in the set-up menu. This does not obviate the need to install correctly designed antenna (aerials) to maximise reception on FM and DAB services.

Internet radio

Using internet radio requires the use of two additional services – access to the internet via a computer network and once this works a feed via one of the internet-based services which allows access to internet radio stations. This latter requirement is built into the tuner; we will deal with access to your network first.

Network access

The installation of computer networks are beyond the scope of these notes, so we assume that you have a working Wi-Fi network in your home. If you are using a wired network please refer to Network Config. under "Settings Overview" section. (Wired networks will provide the most reliable Ethernet streaming. Ethernet over powerline adaptors are available from 3rd parties if running an Ethernet cable is otherwise impractical.)

At start-up, the unit looks for Wi-Fi networks, and once the search has been completed you will find one or more listed networks listed in the display to choose from. You need to select the network name which applies to your installation. This will have been assigned when your network was installed and is often pre-allocated by the router central to your network. The next requirement is to enable your tuner to 'log-on' to your network and you allow this by entering the wireless 'WEP key' (or WPA, WPA2 key) appropriate to your network. It is likely that you will have used the key code when setting up a computer to log onto your network and it is often contained in the instructions for your router. This is a first-time only setting, so just carefully scroll though the alpha-numeric characters selecting the correct upper or lower case characters to create your WEP key. When completed, scroll through to and select END or simply press the REPLY button to complete the process.

You can use the Previous and Next keys of the handset to help you enter this information. Do not confuse the letter 'O' with the numeral 'O'.

When successfully logged on to your network, the tuner will automatically log in to the website where you to be able to select the area of the world that interests you and choose radio stations by country, genre and name.

Registering the radio at www.rotelradio.com will allow you to search for and save internet radio stations, as well as set up other music services when available for your region.

The Rotelradio website — managing your stations

Managing the thousands of radio stations available via the internet would be impossible without being able to organise and manage stations to suit your particular needs. Rotel have provided an easy way to accomplish this by means of a dedicated website where you can pre-select stations.

The URL for this site is http://rotelradio.com.

Like many websites you will need to register a user name and password in order to create an account on the site. Before you can do so, you will need to register the product on the site and there is a special registration key in the Rotel which you will need to copy to the website registration form. This registration key will be found under the settings>register menu. You need to be connected to the internet to access this one time only key.

After registration, the website will show the radio serial number of your Rotel unit. This is different from the serial number of your Rotel unit. The radio serial number can be found in the menu of the Rotel unit under Settings -> Version.

Note that to update the display of the Rotel to indicate your choices, you will need to power-cycle and re-select 'internet radio'. Your new list of 'My Stuff' will be updated automatically.

Playback from iPods, mp3 players and flash drives

Most iPod and mp3 players can be plugged into the USB socket on the front panel to replay the music files stored within. The display will update to show the file structure and will list the files which can be played. Files are copied to a standard flash drive will also behave in the same way.

Playback from network servers

Music playback from computers configured as music servers provides another opportunity to link replay via the Rotel unit and thus make use of the audiophile decoding stages designed into these products.

As with internet radio, a prerequisite is a working network, plus the music server connected to it. Please follow the instructions shown under 'Media Player Quick Start' later in the manual.

AC Power and Control

AC Power Input Ⓙ

Your RCX-1500 is configured at the factory for the proper AC line voltage in the country where you purchased it (USA: 120 volts/60 Hz, Europe: 230 volts/50 Hz). The AC line configuration is noted on a label on the back panel.

The RCX-1500 is supplied with the proper AC power cord. Use only this cord or an exact equivalent. Do not modify the supplied cord. Do not use an extension cord.

Be sure the power switch on the front panel of the RCX-1500 is turned off. Then, plug one end of the cord into the AC power connector on the back panel of the amplifier. Plug the other end into an appropriate AC outlet.

If you are going to be away from home for an extended period of time, it is a sensible precaution to unplug your receiver.

Standby Switch and Indicator Light 1 z

The Standby Switch is located on the left side of the front panel. The Standby Indicator ring will illuminate when the AC mains are connected. This indicates the unit is in Standby mode.

To turn the unit ON, push the Standby switch once, the front display will illuminate, indicating the unit is out of Standby mode and ready for operation.

Connection Overview

Before continuing further to other sections in the manual, please make sure all the cable connections are made properly. Refer to figure 2.

The socket on the front panel below the STANDBY switch is for USB connection. Music storage devices can be accessed by the RCX-1500 through this input. Music storage devices such as MP3 players, iPod, USB memory sticks or any other form of memory devices with USB interface can be connected to the RCX-1500 through the front USB socket. RCX-1500 will automatically search music files from the connected storage device.

NOTE: RCX-1500 use USB 2.0 standard to access music files. The unit can playback music files stored on storage devices that are compliant with USB 2.0 standard. However, it will not operate with devices that require additional drivers.

PHONES Connection Ⓑ

The socket on the front panel below the USB socket is for headphones. Plug a 3.5mm headphone jack into the socket to listen to music through headphones. Connecting headphones will automatically turn off the output to the loudspeakers.

DAB/FM Broadcasting ©

Please use supplied indoor antenna to connect the DAB and FM connector on the rear panel. To receive the best FM signal, make sure there is enough room for the T-shaped indoor antenna to fully extend. Eyelets at both ends of the T allow tacking the antenna to a wall if desired. Experiment with different positions to maximize reception.

NOTE: You must insert the Wi-Fi dongle (or wire adaptor) to the ETHERNET port on the rear panel. The unit will first search for available networks before allowing access to DAB and FM functions. If networks are not available, the unit will display "Network Error". FM and DAB functions will operate normally after the initial network search.

ANALOG INPUT-AUX 2 ©

The RCX-1500 can receive analog music signals from other sources, such as your CD players analog outputs. Connect the LEFT and RIGHT outputs of the source to the LEFT and RIGHT input of the AUX 2 Input.

PRE OUT E

The RCX-1500 can send analog signals to a second amplifier through the connectors labeled PRE OUT. Use this connection if you wish to use another power amplifier to drive your speakers.

Network Connection Ⓕ

Connect the Rotel supplied USB Wi-Fi dongle to the USB port on the RCX-1500 rear panel labeled ETHERNET. The RCX-1500 has been configured to work with the supplied USB Wi-Fi dongle. No additional software/ setup is required. The RCX-1500 is now ready to connect to your wireless LAN. Refer to Internet Radio section for detailed setup.

NOTE: Not all USB Wi-Fi/Wired dongles will operate with the RCX-1500. Please use the one supplied by Rotel.

DIGITAL INPUT-AUX 1 ©

The RCX-1500 can play digital music signal from other sources, such as your CD player's digital output. There are two connectors on the AUX 1 Digital Input area on the rear panel, labeled with coaxial and optical. Connect the coaxial or optical output of your source to the coaxial or optical input of the RCX-1500.

Computer I/O Ⓗ

This RCX-1500 can be operated from a computer with audio system control software from third-party developers. This control is accomplished by sending operating codes from the computer via a hard-wired RS-232 serial connection. In addition, RCX-1500 can be updated using special software from Rotel.

For additional information on the connections, cabling, software, and operating codes for computer control or updating of the unit, contact your authorized Rotel dealer.

Speaker Connections ①

Speaker Selection

The nominal impedance of the loudspeakers connected to each channel of the RCX-1500 should be no lower than 4 ohms.

Speaker Wire Selection

Use insulated two-conductor stranded wire to connect the unit 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 selection of

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 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 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 Connections

NOTE: The following text describes both binding post and banana plug connections. DO NOT use both connection methods in combination to connect multiple speakers.

The amplifier has two sets of color coded terminals for each amplifier channel. The speaker terminals accept bare wire, connector lugs, or "banana" type connectors (except in European Community countries where their use is not permitted).

Route the wires from the RCX-1500 to the speakers. Give yourself enough slack so you can move the components to allow access to the speaker connectors

NOTE: Be sure to note the location of the LEFT and RIGHT speaker terminals and connect your LEFT and RIGHT speakers to the correct outputs.

If you are using banana plugs, connect them to the wires and then plug into the backs of the speaker connectors. When using banana plugs, the collars of the binding post terminals 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 speaker connectors, separate the wire conductors and strip back the insulation from the end of each conductor. Be careful not to cut into the wire strands. Unscrew (turn counterclockwise) the binding post collar. Place the connector lug around the shaft, or insert the bundled wire into the hole in the shaft. Turn the collars clockwise to clamp the connector lug or wire firmly in place.

NOTE: Make sure there are no loose wire strands that could touch adjacent wires or connectors.

Internet Radio Quick Start

What you need before starting

Before you can use your Internet radio, you need the following:

A broadband Internet connection. •

Access point to internet through wireless LAN. (wired LAN connection • is also possible with a Rotel supplied USB Ethernet adaptor)

With wireless LAN connection, internet radio should work within 100 metres of the wireless access point, subject to the router/Wi-Fi gateway being placed in the optimum area for your location. The user can confirm the WiFi Strength under the settings menu. (Network->Settings->WiFi Strength)
