Cambridge Audio invites you to discover a whole new world of crystal clear reception with the all-new award-winning Azur 640T
DAB/FM tuner. A great choice of new and established FM and AM stations now broadcast digitally to offer interference-free
transmissions.
Following the huge success of the award-winning DAB 500, Cambridge Audio introduces a tuner that harnesses the true
potential of both DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) and traditional FM broadcasts.
The 640T incorporates the very latest highly integrated DAB chipset from Texas Instruments coupled to a high performance
Wolfson WM8716 24-bit/192kHz DAC (digital to analogue converter), ensuring the best possible performance.
The state-of-the-art 640T features Natural Contour Technology (NCT), developed by Cambridge Audio to counter the sometimes
'flat' presentation of compressed digital sources (such as some low bit-rate DAB radio stations). Two settings are offered:
'Warm', which adds an analogue-like warmth to 'digital' sounding programmes and 'Lively', which breathes life into the sound
quality of heavily compressed programmes.
A key benefit of the 640T – which has already scooped Editor's Choice award from leading magazine Digital Home – is the ability
to select radio stations by name, meaning frequencies don't have to be remembered. In addition, the comprehensive information
panel displays artist name, song title and even lyrics where broadcast.
Let the 640T help you say goodbye to memorising station frequencies, suffering atmospheric interference on Medium Wave
broadcasts and enduring FM crackles – welcome to the digital radio revolution.
