RC-1082 pre amp owners

[miner]

I have a 4 mo old RC-1082. I recently noticed the LED for tone override does not illuminate when the button is pushed in (to use the tone controls). I don't want to take in for repair for this isuue since the unit ids fairly new and I do not want ot be without the pre for 3+ weeks. Will Rotel replace this new pre since it is less than ayear old?

Any other owners notice this SNAFU?

I doubt they will replace it with a new unit. They will probably just fix it, unless it can't be fixed. But if you take it to your dealer instead of sending it directly to Rotel he might replace it with a new unit.

The problem is going to be if it's considered a current model or not.

Hi miner,

The LED on my RC-1082 does not come on when the tone control button is depressed. I don't think it ever has. I never noticed before now.

I shouldn't have opened this thread!
