Expert Insight

Line Circle

The RB-1582 MkII could soften an overly analytic front end or be the powerhouse of an already comfortable-sounding system. Not surprisingly, it blended well with its preamplifier mate, Rotel’s RC-1570. If all of that sounds appealing -- and I could see it being just that for a lot of audiophiles -- this Rotel should be on your shortlist for audition.

Rotel RB-1582 MKII Stereo Power Amplifier

Rotel's RB-1582 MkII, the brand's second-largest stereo amplifier boasting 200 Watts per channel, effortlessly powers even the most substantial Hi-Fi systems, skillfully combining finesse for resolving intricate musical details with the strength required for dynamic passages. Its superior performance is achieved through meticulous circuit design and parts selection, featuring an expansive toroidal transformer, 60,000µF storage capacity in specialized "slit foil" capacitors, and a discrete output stage with 10 high-current bipolar transistors per channel. The mono block design and star-pattern copper grounding plate ensure low signal-to-noise, while balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA connectors provide versatile input options, making the RB-1582 MkII a cornerstone of Rotel's Balanced Design Concept and a central component for impressive stereo or home theater systems.
