    VA Rating of Trans. in RA-971 MkII

    Does anyone know the VA rating of the toroid used in the RA-971 MKII power amp?

    I've had a look inside and each secondary is 32Vrms and there are two 6.3A fuses. I would have thought this meant it would be rated at about 32*(2 secondaries)*6.3*(2 fuses)=806VA but it is too small for this. perhaps about half this?

    Normally they are fused @ full load (current draw) versus fusing for max output (as it sounds like you know). Rotel makes some of their own, and or, has them made to their specs. They may not choose to give this information out for various reasons. If you're looking to replace or modify I would contact them, just to be on the safe side.

      by TimbaLand
      A friend is looking for the RMB1095. He found one from a guy closer to where I leave and he asked me to go check it out. I had the same amp before and I know there were 2 versions. Most obvious difference being the binding posts, 12v trigger and that MKII was available in black or silver and black....

      Hi,
      I'm considering the RA1570 Integrated DAC/Amp for a 2 channel setup, and possibly to combine it with a AVR for a 5.1 setup in the future. 2ch though is my main priority. My budget is under $2k and have a pair of B&W 683 speakers

      However, does anyone have any feedback on how...
