Our thoughts

Streaming, television audio and a 220-watt amplifier share one chassis here, built on a linear power supply for owners who would rather run one box than a stack of components.

The linear supply, built around a custom toroidal transformer, aims to keep noise low in the critical stages and feed the output transistors steady current, so that bass control is designed to hold up as the volume climbs. PC-USB decodes MQA and MQA Studio files up to 24-bit/384kHz, so those archives play without an external decoder. Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect and Roon Ready mean the apps you already use can drive the unit directly, with your existing subscriptions.

It suits Roon households, television-led systems using HDMI eARC, and anyone wanting one chassis for both streaming and amplification. Give the team a call or come in to Murarrie to talk through speaker matching and how it sits alongside your existing sources.

The Audio Tailor team, Murarrie showroom

Simplicity and performance meet in the Rotel RAS-5000, a streamer amplifier designed to fit into your lifestyle and elevate your entertainment experience.

The RAS-5000 seamlessly integrates HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) for playback of video sound, and effortlessly streams from online sources to play your favourite music from Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Internet Radio, or any service available on your computer, tablet, or mobile device via AirPlay 2, Google Cast, Roon, or aptX HD Wireless Bluetooth. The RAS-5000 is the perfect fusion of advanced audio technology coupled with modern convenience.

In addition to streaming and HDMI ARC you’ll also enjoy a wide array of traditional source inputs including Coaxial, Optical and RCA Analog inputs. The PC-USB input supports PCM and native MQA and MQA Studio decoding.

Digital music files up to 32-bit, 384kHz resolution are rendered with ultimate precision thanks to the premium ESS Digital to Analog converter, while the streamlined ARC connection between your TV and RAS-5000 ensures dynamic, high resolution sound from your favourite live sports, TV shows, movies, and games.

Like all Rotel amplifiers, the RAS-5000 is constructed around a massive linear power supply featuring a custom toroidal transformer, which allows the RAS-5000 to deliver a staggering 220 watts of Class AB power into 4 ohms. The overengineered power supply delivers ultra-low-noise power to all critical components and robust current to the amplifier output transistors to deliver deep, controlled bass energy with exceptional fidelity.

The sleek RAS-5000 is available in both stylish black and sophisticated silver colours to blend seamlessly to any décor, while its user-friendly interface ensures effortless operation.

Enhance and simplify your home entertainment experience without compromise today with the Rotel RAS-5000 and immerse yourself in sound.

Rotel RAS-5000 features:

  • 2 x 220 Watts of robust Class AB power, 4 Ohms
  • Wireless aptX™ HD and AAC Bluetooth
  • ESS premium 32-bit Digital to Analog Converter
  • Certified Roon Ready
