Hi,
I'm new to this forum. First hit on Rotel Forum, was this site. I hope someone can help me.
Bought a Rotel RA-1570 (not RT) a few years ago, when it was new. And earlier this year I bought a USB-cable to connect my computer to it. because I wanted to try not using the Toslink I've used since the beginning.
Anyone, from my desktop computer I run the USB-cable to the back of the Rotel, then installed a set of Drivers.
It works! But I noticed a constant humming sound coming from all speakers (front, left, right). And the humming sound does not change with volume, it's pretty strong.
So, maybe the cause is the power lines between Desktop and the Stereo - I was smart, I hooked the Rotel up to a Laptop, and made it run on batteries = not interference with the power outlet. Still the same humming sound! Constant, not volume related.
Is my Rotel RA-1570 faulty? What else can I try?
