    RT1080 wont power up

    Woke up this morning to find the tuner wont power. When I press the power the blue light will come on and off but the LCD wont turn on and no sound.

    Any ideas for repair?

    This is typical for me (and lucky) .. take it all apart... disconnect and reconnect all the wires and it works again!

      I had that same problem with mine once or twice. It seems like if you disconnect everything, let it sit, it then comes on without issue. Only happened twice I think since I've had it (which is a long time)...so I can't complain. But it is odd, because even the switch on the back doesn't seem to make it do anything, then one time it just starts working again.

      Glad you got yours working again!

        You might want to check the trigger connection. Having a cable plugged into the trigger will stop it from turning on. A bad trigger jack could also cause this.

          RT1080 Tuner Question
          by EricTh
          Running the RT1080 with a 1068 and have everything working great except the "RDS and RDBS Reception" information. The manual states that by hitting display repeatedly, one should be able to set what is displayed on the 1080. I simply want the Standard (choice 1) Frequency Display but it...

          Need beta testers for computer user interface to control: RT1080, RSP1068, RSP1066

          Hi Folks,

          Seems like a pretty big following here for Rotel.

          If you've always wanted to control your equipment from your computer/graphic user interface, touchscreen or tablet pc, but thought it was cost prohibitive, think again.

          We've got a free plugin available...

          rt1080 computer control program BETA
          by c3lica
          As some of you know I just bought a RT-1080 tuner. I received it friday and have been working on a program to control it and view it. So far I have gotten the text from the display screen working pretty well. You see just what you see on the actual unit but there are a few bugs.

          High end power amps
          by luvdozer
          I would like to try and start a discussion on the added utility of high end power amplifiers. I am interested to hear the opinions of some of the more learned forum members.

          I have always felt that speakers are the most important part of any audio system. One could have $20,000 worth...

          Power Amp Recommendations
          by jim1961
          I currently own a Classe CA-100. I'd like to get to 200-250W of clean 8 ohm power. I was wondering what you guys might recommend in a used amp 2-4 years old as a used buy in the $1000-1250 range that wont be a downgrade in sound quality from what I already have.
