Very high-end audio systems deserve very high-end audio components. The Rotel RC-1590MKII is exactly this: a very high-performance preamplifier that reproduces analog and digital sources with natural expressiveness and impressive clarity in a wide, open soundstage.
At the heart of the RC-1590MKII we first find a power supply that includes two toroidal transformers manufactured by Rotel in its own facilities. These transformers are physically and electrically isolated to provide dedicated supply voltages to all critical analog and digital circuits, using low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) thin film capacitors to eliminate unwanted distortion and drastically minimize background noise.
The inputs corresponding to the digital sources are processed with the help of an audiophile-grade D/A converter (DAC) with 32-bit/384 kHz technology signed by Texas Instruments and custom-developed external output filtering circuits tuned by ear, which They restore even the finest details with exceptional clarity and exact positioning of voices and instruments.
Signal paths for analog sources, meanwhile, include DIRECT-PATH routing modes that eliminate unnecessary circuitry to maintain signal integrity and further reduce unwanted noise and distortion to bring you even closer. and immerse the user in their favorite music.
