Why you will love it

Class AB power from a toroidal transformer

Rotel says the A12MKII is powered by its oversized, in-house manufactured toroidal transformer. It delivers 60 watts per channel of clean, dynamic Class AB output into 8 ohms.

Rotel also lists 120 watts per channel maximum into 4 ohms (non-FTC) and 75 watts per channel into 8 ohms on the FTC rating. Total harmonic distortion is listed as below 0.018%.

Connect turntables, digital sources and your computer

Rotel lists a Moving Magnet phono stage, 4 RCA analog inputs, 4 digital inputs and a PC-USB input. Per the owner's manual the digital inputs are two coaxial and two optical, and the amplifier decodes PCM up to 24-bit/192kHz.

The PC-USB input supports USB Audio Class 1.0 up to 24-bit/96kHz. In USB Audio Class 2.0 mode it supports up to 32-bit/384kHz, with a Windows driver supplied on a USB stick. Macs do not need a driver. The A12MKII is Roon Tested.

32-bit DAC and aptX Bluetooth

The DAC is a premium Texas Instruments 32-bit/384kHz converter. Rotel says optimised circuits preserve the integrity of the audio stream and deliver spacious and open reproduction.

Bluetooth supports aptX. The owner's manual says the unit supports traditional Bluetooth, AAC and aptX streaming.

Outputs and everyday controls

There are two sets of speaker outputs (A and B), a pre-out, a 3.5 mm headphone output and 12V trigger outputs. The manual says that if you only use one set of speakers at a time, they can be as low as 4 ohms. If you use both sets together, all speakers should be 8 ohms or more.

Bass and treble controls are bypassed by default for the purest signal. They can be switched on from the menu, along with balance, display dimmer and an off timer.
