Thank you for purchasing your Azur 651T. We are confident that you will
enjoy many years of listening pleasure from it. Like all Cambridge Audio
products, the Azur 651T adheres to our three core principles -“ stunning
performance, ease of use and incredible value.
The 651T supports both the digital DAB and analogue FM/AM radio
systems. For FM/AM the 651T features true analogue domain decoding of
FM/AM for best sound quality with this format.
For DAB broadcasts the built in digital radio tuner is compatible with both
the DAB and DAB+ (AAC+ format) standards and features a very high
quality WM8740 Digital to Analogue conver ter from Wolfson
Microelectronics.
An Azur Navigator remote is provided, giving full remote control of the
tuner functions and those of our amplifiers in an attractive and easy to
use handset.
The 651T can only be as good as the system its is connected to. Please
do not compromise on your amplifier, speakers or cabling. Naturally we
particularly recommend models from the Cambridge Audio Azur range
which have been designed to the same exacting standards as this tuner.
Your dealer can also supply excellent quality Cambr idge Audio
interconnects to ensure your system realises its full potential.
The use of an external aerial is strongly recommended to get the best from
your 651T.
Thank you for taking the time to read this manual; we recommend you
keep it for future reference.
