    RB-985MKII bias level?

    Hello,
    I’ve noticed that when I place my hands on top of my RB-985MKII, the left side of the amp is warmer than the right side. This happens both in 2 channel and 5 channel applications. I suspect that the bias level of the output power transistors needs to be adjusted. Does anyone know what the (mV) bias level specification is for the RB-985MKII?
    Thank You!

      rsx1067 vs rsp1068/rb993/rb985mkII
      by JRambo
      Hi, I recently read in a home-theater magazine that the Rotel rsx1067 was their first choice in the heavy-receiver class.. How will this receiver compare to a setup with rsp1068, rb993 and rb985mkII, when it comes to sound quality, as the price for these two setups will be about the same..

      I've discovered the ultimate audiophile component
      by Kevin P
      In my years of stumbling around audio and HT-related forums, one thing I've noticed that many audiophiles seem to agree on are these things (note that this is for music, not home theater):
      • 2-channel is preferred over multi-channel
      • Vinyl is preferred over CD, and even SACD/DVD-A
      • Tubes are preferred

      Amp Bias?
      by clarkbox
      Can anyone tell me more about my amps bias? I have the Rotel RB-1080.

      When i asked the dealer what causes one side/channel to become hotter than the opposite, he said it was likely due to the bias setting found under the covers.

      The left side of this amp stays mildly warm,...

      Bias adjusting of Bryston 7b-ST
      by ozanhan
      Hello,

      I have to adjust the bias current of a Bryston 7B-ST.
      There is TP1 and TP2 points which connected to collector,emitter resistors (0,22 ohms). What is the regular voltage for this points to set the bias current best value? I know the best way is to use a distortion analysers...

      bias current
      by rabident
      I've had great support from Classe over the years, even on my 10 year old cav-75 long since out of warranty. I had an issue with it over heating and triggering the protection circuits (and occasionally popping a fuse in the process). Classe said bias current can drift over time and they had trim pots...
