    RMB-1585 Power Noise?

    Hi all!

    Just took ownership of a new Rotel RMB-1585 200wpc. I’ve noticed it has a sight noise to it when it’s on, seems like electrical noise but not sure if it’s something more serious. I also can hear when starting up a sort of light rapid clicking sound,
    I haven’t been able to tell if it’s only on startup, as last night I don’t remember the clicking part. I went ahead and disconnected it from my monster surge protector and plugged it directly to an outlet, it seems the noise is less but I am not certain as I had someone do
    It while I was on the phone. According to them, it’s heard when you are close on top of it, sitting back you can’t hear it.

    Probably just paranoid , I’ve never had a separate amp before. This is paired with the new RSP-1576 MKII processor. Is there any power conditioning that should be used here? Some people say it’s best connected direct to a wall outlet.

    Thanks!!

    there should be no noise.
    have you mentioned this to the place you purchased it from?

      I've recently upgraded everything I got to Rotel equipment and am loving every bit of it but I seem to be having a bit of a problem with the RCD-1072.

      With some CDs it seems to be making a kind of clicking or loud spinning...

      Bizarre Noise When trigger cable is connected to 1068
      by InTheRed
      First off, I am a new Rotel owner as of 12/24. I unexpectedly got a 1068 and 1075 for Christmas. Pretty freaking cool.

      I spent half of yesterday hooking it up. Unfortunately, about 15-20 seconds after firing the 1068 up it began to make a very bizarre noise. It sounds mechanical, like...

      Upgrade to RMB1585
      by TimbaLand
      Hi guys

      I have an RMB1095 and I have an opportunity to replace it with RMB1585. It's gonna cost some money to do this but I'm getting it at a good price. More like 40% off retail value. Is it worth it or this is just a waste of money?
