The preamp works and sounds great. The previous owner had arranged this unit to have some of the parts upgraded. The upgrade was based on “Andy Grove mods”. I have attached photos of the article that was given to me by the previous owner.

Beautiful looking stereo amplifier by Rotel! Has been tested and is working well, really nice sound quality with no issues found Excellent cosmetic condition, The only issue cosmetically is that the dials have hard to remove dirt in areas, will come off with some persuasion Brand new plug fitted Please see all photos Comes with original owners manual

For your consideration is this Rotel RA970BX integrated amplifier. Difficult to find in the US as it was more popular in Europe where people dont tend to gravitate towards receivers as much as in the US. Separates are king over there. High-current design with audiophile components including toroidal transformer, British made slit foil capacitors, Roederstein metal film resistors, Vishal metal foil resistors and Black Gate capacitors. 4ohm stable, putting out 90wpc (60wpc at 8ohms). This is basically an RB970BX amplifier and an RC970BX preamplifier rolled into one unit. If you were to buy those separately, youd be spending over double the asking price of this unit.The amplifier is in great cosmetic shape, and includes the original box and manual. Works as intended too, except for some minor scratchiness when some of the knobs are used - should clean nicely with DeOxit. If youre looking for warm sound, this may not be the unit for you, as it has the typical British sound signature which tends to be neutral in nature. Quoted shipping price only applies to lower 48 states. If located outside the continental US, please contact me before bidding. For buyers outside the US, I encourage the use of eBay Global, although please note that additional fees may apply. The amplifier will be carefully packed, double boxed and surrounded with foam to ensure safe arrival to its destination. Local pick up is welcome in the Rochester, NY area. Thanks for looking!

ROTEL RC-970BX pre-amplifier. I paid good money to change out the two prong to three prong receptacles so that you can use more power cable options. Opamps upgraded to Burr Brown OPA 2134PA. Please make sure to use matched pair opamps when swapping. Thanks for looking!!!

Rotel RA-970BX Stereo Integrated Amplifier. 60 watts RMS into 8 ohms, 90 watts RMS into 4 ohms. Includes original manual and warranty card, and a printout of the technical manual. Originally sold in 1997, Ive owned this since around 2003, and have only used it occasionally to power NHT bookshelf speakers. Selling simply because I havent used it in years, having switched to headphones. The video for this listing demonstrates the basic functionality of the amp. The audio was captured using a Zoom H4n Pro audio recorder and NHT SuperZero XU speakers. All inputs work. Pre-amp outputs (Tape 1 & Tape 2) could not be tested, but I have no reason to believe they dont work. The overall condition is excellent, aside from a few small scuffs on the top (see photos). The only performance flaw I can find is that when switching the TONE control on, if the bass and treble dials are turned up, the left channel will drop out. This issue is demonstrated at the end of the listings video. The only cleaning Ive done is blowing out dust using compressed air and wiping down the exterior with a damp microfiber cloth, so I have no idea if this problem is caused by dust or a bad circuit, potentiometer, or switch.
