    1055 power consumption

    The power consumption listed for the RSX-1055 is 450 Watts.

    Two questions:

    1. Is the 450 Watts consumption rated when the amps are at peak operating levels (ie a full blast dynamic musical passage or explosion scene in a movie)?

    2. Could anyone hazard a guess what the power consumption of this unit would be if it was being used only as a pre-pro? Would it be drawing more power than say a 1066? I'm wondering if the amp section is still being "powered up", and thus consuming additional watts.

    If there are no speakers connected then the amps shouldn't use anything, sinnce they are probably AB class amps.

    The 450 watts is only if you drive the unit to its maximum, which you will rarely do anyway (and kill the unit in the process).

    I guess it won't do much more than a 1066 when no speakers connected. Maybe a bit, but not much.

      hi there,

      i saw only 50 watts consumption with 5 channel using at increased volume.
      i think this is a good amplifer construction, hehehe.

        Tripp Lite LCR240 input needed as power line conditioner
        by ht_addict
        Just curious if anyone could give some feedback on the Tripp Lite LCR2400. It seems to do the same as the Monster AVS2000 but at a fraction of the cost.($375CDN) definitely has the power output to handle a hungry HT. Here's a link.

        Hi all,

        I'm a newbie to this forum but thought I would post one of my concerns to see what all of you had to say. I just purchased the RMB-1095 last week. Great sounding amp paired with my Def Techs and Denon 3805.

        However, I have one concern which Rotel doesn't seem...

        True Power?
        by P-Dub
        What are the true power needs of the average person, and how are companies meeting it?

        From this link, I've seen that actual Watts measured can be different from advertised Watts.

        And today I was checking out this FAQ at a classic Marantz site, and about half way down I...

        by NMyTree
        Hi.

        I have question regarding output voltage of my Vincent Hybrid SA-T1 Pre Amp. Is that the right term?


        I'm wondering if my SA-T1 has enough or adequate juice to be matched up with my Butler TDB 2250 Hybrid Power amp?

        I don't know much about these...
