Rotel RA-1592 Silver

There are so many first-class music sources available to music lovers today that the range of audiophile music is extremely diverse. Thanks to audio streaming in CD or better quality, downloads offered on websites in high resolution, inexpensive mass storage devices, the indestructible CD and the record, which is very popular in the digital age, you can enjoy your music treasures in the best sound quality. In order to be able to listen to all this music as it was recorded by the artist, an extremely flexible and sonically excellent amplifier is required.

The RA-1592 integrated amplifier is just such a component. It makes use of the strengths of our award-winning RC-1590 preamplifier and our RB-1582 MkII power amplifier and also impresses with its slim design. This class AB amplifier delivers a full 200 watts per channel and is equipped with high-quality components, so that it is also the ideal partner for large speaker systems. The power supply is based on an extremely generously dimensioned toroidal transformer manufactured by Rotel and is also equipped with high-quality slit-foil filter capacitors. In practice, this integrated amplifier is ideally equipped for first-class music reproduction.

A first-class D / A converter from AKM (768 kHz / 32 bit) is integrated into the RA-1592 to optimize the preamplifier section. The D / A converter and the corresponding circuits support a number of source inputs such as the DSD-capable PC-USB connection (192 kHz / 24 bit), three coaxial and three optical digital inputs as well as the front USB iPod input. With the help of the Bluetooth antenna on the back of the device, you can stream music wirelessly from your device (e.g. your mobile phone) via Bluetooth. The RA-1592 supports both standard Bluetooth and aptX Bluetooth music streaming.

On the back there are high-quality terminals for loudspeaker groups A and B (switchable), pre-out cinch connections and two mono sub-outputs, which ensures maximum flexibility. Various protective circuits react to faulty operating conditions such as overcurrent, short circuit and excess temperature, so that the electronics and the connected loudspeakers are optimally protected.

In automation systems, the RA-1592 can be controlled via the RS-232 interface and integrated into a network using the NETWORK socket. In addition, it is equipped with two 12V trigger outputs and an EXT REM IN connection.

The RA-1592 is the best integrated amplifier that Rotel has ever produced in its 50-year history as a manufacturer of powerful audio components.
