    15 series LED dimmers available.

    For those who think the 15 series power LED is too bright, adhesive diffuser rings are now available. They will also be included in all new shipments. I'm not sure how they perform or look, but I should have them this week.

    I would imagine Rotel would send you some if you contacted them.

    lol, talk about a simple solution: just cover the offending LED with a circle of sticky tape! Brilliant! I'm interested to see what they look like.

      Thanks for letting us know. I was just thinking the other night at how bright that blue circle is.

        You know the sad thing about this is that the 15 series design will probably be short lived. I know Rotel UK are reluctant to make a hardware change as this would create a "Mark 1" with a bright LED and a "Mark 2" with a dimmer LED (across the entire line). I can sort of see their point, but I wonder how something like this got to production in the first place. Someone at Rotel thought a mega bright blue LED circle was cool, and they got it wrong. Pity. I suppose until we get the next series, a plastic diffuser will be including in the box.

          Bright lights and movies?

          I agree these lights are way too bright without the option to dim.
          When I first seen the RSP1570 in my dealers showroom it wasn't the nice shiny finish that caught my eye.

          edit:
          I wish they would have revamped the 10xx series IMO the silver/black is really attractive.

            RC1090 volume dial blue LED not working
            by vifferboy
            Hello

            I just picked up a RC1090 from Audiogon, the unit is in excellent condition and sounds very nice. I had an RC1070 before which always seemed a bit bright to me, the RC1090 is very smooth.

            Anyway the one small downer on the deal is that the seller failed to mention...

            Led Zeppelin I, II & III Remastered (by Page) in 96/24 format
            by aud19


            Has anyone else heard these yet?! Cranked I and III up last night and my goodness it sounds like Page lubed up his guitar and slid it slowly, lovingly in to my ears.

            If you're a classic rock/Zep fan you owe it to yourself to hear these remasters. They're on a whole other level...
