Phones Output 3
The Phones output allows you to connect headphones for private listening. This output accommodates standard stereo phone 3.5 mm (1/8”) plugs. Plugging in a set of headphones does not cut off the signal to the outputs. The settings of the Function Selector and the Tape Monitor Control determines which source is heard. To listen to or monitor the component connected to the Tape input set the Monitor Control to the Tape position. For all other inputs leave the Monitor Control in the Source position and select the source you want to listen to with the front panel Function Selector or press the corresponding source button on the remote control.
NOTE: Because the sensitivity of head- phones and the other components in the system can vary widely, always reduce the volume level before connecting or discon- necting headphones.
Media Player 4
A 3.5mm (1/8”) stereo input socket for a “Media Player” is provided on the front of the amplifier and is selected by setting the function control to (AUX2). Any portable stereo cassette, compact disc player or hard disc playback device can be connected via this input. If the device you are connecting has its output via the headphone socket then note that you must adjust the volume control on the player for sound to be heard. Should the sound be loud and distorted turn down the volume on the player and if it is only just audible through the speakers even when the amplifier volume control is turned up fairly high then adjust the volume control on the player.
NOTE: When the 3.5mm (mimi jack) is inserted into the Media Player socket the rear input called AUX2 is disconnected. Removing the 3.5mm plug from the Media player socket will allow the rear AUX2 input to function.
Audio Controls

Function Control 9 i
The Function control selects the input signal source. Turn the Function control to the source you want to listen to. Or press the corresponding source button on the remote control.
The signal selected by the Function control is the one you hear, as long as the Monitor control is set to the Source postion. (See the following section.) The signal selected by the Function control also goes to the Tape Outputs.
Monitor Control 8
When the Monitor Control is set to the Source position, the signal you hear, and which goes to the Outputs, is selected by the Function Control. To listen to the signal from a recorder connected to the Tape Inputs, set the Monitor Control to the Tape position. When the Monitor Control is in the Tape position, the signal from the Tape Input also goes to the Outputs.
The signal that goes to the Tape Output is always selected by the Function Control. When you are recording with a unit that has monitoring capabilities, you can listen to the sound just recorded by setting the Monitor Control to the Tape position.

IR Inputs and Outputs
External Remote Input e
This 3.5 mm
NOTE: The IR signals from the EXTERNAL REMOTE IN jack can be relayed to source components using external IR emitters or hardwired connections from the IR OUT jacks.
IR Output r
The IR OUT jack sends IR signals received at the EXTERNAL REM IN jack to an infrared emitter, or to Rotel CD players, cassette decks, or tuners with a compatible rear panel IR connector. This allows you to use IR control features to oper- ate other components when the IR sensors on those components are blocked or obstructed by installation in a cabinet.
See your authorized Rotel dealer for informa- tion on IR repeater systems.
NOTE: The EXT REM IN jack located next to the IR OUTPUT jack is for use with an external IR sensor which duplicates the front panel IR sensor.
