Overview:
The 651T is everything you could ever need from a hi-fi tuner
Featuring DAB+ technology, the Cambridge Audio AZUR 651T means you can not only enjoy regular DAB stations but also reap the benefits of new DAB+ digital broadcasts in even higher quality thanks to support for the latest HE-AAC audio format.
DAB+ is already available in Denmark and Australia with many other countries currently testing and trialling the system. In the meantime, countries which currently receive DAB broadcasts can continue to enjoy these on their 651T tuner.
The move to DAB+ can also enable far more stations to share the airwaves leading to greater choice.
Features:
1.) Standby/On - Switches the unit between Standby mode (indicated by dim power LED) and On (indicated by bright power LED). Standby is an eco power mode where the power consumption is less than one watt.
2.) Presets - The 651T can store up to 20 Presets for each of the DAB, FM and AM bands. All 20 per band are available from the remote control, while 10 per band are available from the front panel. The Shift button alternates the 5 buttons between accessing or storing Presets 1-5 and 6-10
3.) Band - This button switches between the AM, FM or DAB bands as appropriate
4.) Autotune
5.) Info - Press to select and view different information on the front panel display.
The display modes are:
6.) Select/Mode
7.) (Skip/Scan)
The display modes are:
1.) AC Power Socket - Once all connections have been made, plug the AC power cable into an appropriate mains socket. Your 651T is now ready for use.
2.) Power On/Off - Switches the unit on and off.
3.) Control Bus - The Control Bus carries control information, in the form of demodulated remote control signals, between the tuner and other Cambridge Audio devices connected to it.
4.) RS232 - For custom install use.
5.) IR (Infra-Red) Emitter In - Allows modulated IR commands from multi-room systems or IR repeater systems to be received by the unit
6.) Line Output - Connect to your amplifier using good quality RCA/Phono cables
7.) Digital Outputs - Note: The Digital outputs only work in DAB mode.
8.) AM Loop Aerial - Connect each end of the single length antenna to the antenna terminals. Place the antenna as far from the main system as possible to prevent unwanted noise and to obtain optimum reception. If the AM loop aerial provided does not receive sufficient reception, it may be necessary to use an outdoor AM aerial
9.) FM Aerial - Connect an aerial to the FM 75 ohm socket (a simple wire aerial is supplied only for temporary use). Extend the lead and move the aerial
around until you get the best reception. For continued use, we strongly recommend using a 75 ohm outdoor FM aerial.
10.) DAB Aerial Input - Azur 651T has a 50 Ω F-type screw connection aerial for DAB signals (a temporary aerial is supplied).
