    Rotel RMB1585

    Hi guys

    I see Rotel released a new class AB RM 1585 a few months ago. Is it the rmb1095 that has been re-boxed into the 15 series box? I think there's an RB1590 which is more like the RB1090
    Re-boxed. Does anyone have an intimate knowledge of this power amps?

    Someone must know something about these new class AB Rotel power amps. Is there an improvement to their 10xx equivalents

      Here's a link from Rotel's North American webpage on the RMB1585. The link includes an article published in February 2014.

        The layout looks the same as the 1095. Looks like they added fans, either from the 15 series not having as much external heatsinks at the 10 series, or to allow it to be stacked like the other 15 series.

          And removed the all so needed Caster Wheels. I thought that was a great feature of the RMB1095. I miss mine from time to time.

            I saw that on the 1585. How does one take it in and out of cabinets. It's about 35kgs

              Have them on my RB-1090......

              ......Why don't all manufactures do this with weighty chassis?
              ......it makes so much sense.

              ........a shame that Rotel stopped using them.

                  RMB1585 balanced inputs
                  by TimbaLand
                  The RMB1585 has RCA and XLR inputs. I have heard before that the XLR inputs in Rotel are not truly. balanced. Os it the case with the 1585?

                  Low voltage on trigger out? Rmb-1585
                  by prk504
                  Does anyone here use the trigger out on the pm back of the rmb1585?

                  I'm only getting 8.75v from the trigger out per my multimeter. My marantz is showing a full 12v.

                  Does anyone else have low voltage from the trigger out on any of their Rotel Amps?

                  Thanks

                  by prk504
                  Does anyone experience a slight him from the tweeters when using the rmb1585?

                  I have a slight hum with no audio coming through..I've tried disconnecting all the interconnects and the trigger. The amp is plugged into a Tripp Lite Lc1200 and I've tried plugging it in directly to the wall....

                  loud off switch on my RB1590
                  by rickp1966
                  Hi everyone, i just picked up a rc 1590 and rb 1590 .
                  My question is, Is it normal to have a noisy off switch on the rb1590 . It sounds tinny when the two pieces are shut off . But the sounds comes from the amp .
                  It doesn't bother me, i just want to know if it is normal .
