The Rotel RC-1580 is the first Rotel preamp to offer an HT Bypass input. However it seems a little strange that the Tape 2 input is actually the bypass input.
My first thought was that this might have been an afterthought, enabled with an internal circuit modification, and the original silkscreened front and back panels were not changed, hence the "Tape 2" selection, yet there is a front panel Bypass LED indicator.
This also brings up a question - what function do the Tape 2 outputs now have?
