Rotel RD-855

Rotel cassette deck RD-855

All four Rotel cassette decks are carefully designed to match compatibly with the other Rotel components. Very good sound quality. Reliable mechanisms. Useful controls and buttons. Solid high performance.

The RD-855 incorporate two motor electronic full logic cassette controls, have automatic tape selections for metal, special (chrome) and normal tapes, and are equipped with Dolby B/C and Dolby B/C/HX pro noise reduction systems respectively. For the level display, the RD-855 utilizes a LED-array system.

Each model comes enclosed in an extruded aluminum front panel and a rigid metal chasis. All for better musical performances.
