The new FMJ T32 Radio Tuner uses state-of-the art technologies to deliver the very best sound quality from DAB, FM, AM and Sirius Satellite broadcasts. A bespoke iPod interface is also included allowing full integration of compatible iPods with any high performance music system using the rDock or rLead. Finally A full duplex RS232 control input also makes the T32 a perfect radio tuner for custom installations.
Having designed and manufactured radio tuners since the late 1970s Arcam has a wealth of experience in delivering high performance from radio broadcasts. The new FMJ T32 builds on this foundation, using state-of-the-art technologies to deliver the very best radio quality from DAB, FM, AM and Sirius Satellite broadcasts (DAB and Sirius reception market dependent).
To ensure the very best sound quality the T32 uses Arcam’s audiophile methodology. For DAB, digital to analogue conversion uses the Wolfson 8740 from Arcam’s award winning DVD players. All circuitry is fed from a toroidal power transformer and multiple low noise regulated dc power supplies with components mounted on double-sided fibreglass PCBs. Station selection is via presets or the large front panel knob. The large, clear VFD display has scrolling text and is easily read from any angle or in any light condition.
A bespoke iPod interface is also included in the T32 allowing full integration of compatible iPods with any high performance music system. Using the Arcam rDock or rLead full control of the iPod is delivered from the remote handset along with pristine audio quality.
In addition to its class-leading audio performance, the T32’s connectivity, control features and multi-platform reception are state of the art. If not connecting an iPod the RS232 control input make the T32 a perfect radio tuner for custom installations using Crestron or AMX style system controls. For simpler systems the unit features an IR jack input on the rear panel plus a fully featured system remote handset.
The T32 is the perfect partner for Arcam FMJ stereo and AV systems and is available in black or silver finish.
