Thank you for purchasing your Azur 650T. We are confident that you will
enjoy many years of listening pleasure from it. Like all Cambridge Audio
products, the Azur 650T adheres to three core principles – stunning
performance, ease of use and incredible value.
The 650T is a newly developed tuner for the Azur range available in two
versions, one supporting DAB/FM/AM and one supporting FM/AM/Sirius
Ready. Both feature true analog domain decoding of FM/AM for best
sound quality.
In the continental US and Canada the Sirius Ready version can optionally
be connected to a suitable Sirius Ready module allowing reception of
Sirius Satellite Radio (requires subscription and purchase of the module).
The DAB version features an in-built digital radio tuner compatible with
both the DAB and DAB+ standards and features a Wolfson WM8740
Digital to Analog converter.
A specific version of the Azur Navigator remote is provided, giving full
remote control of the tuner functions in an attractive and easy to use
handset.
The 650T can only be as good as the system it’s 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 Cambridge Audio
interconnects to ensure your system realises its full potential.
The use of an external aerial is also strongly recommended to get the best
from your 650T.
Ultimate sound quality depends on the whole of your system, naturally we
particularly recommend speakers from the Cambridge Audio Sirocco range
as these have been designed for a perfect acoustic and aesthetic match.
Your dealer can also supply excellent quality Cambridge Audio interconnects
to ensure your system realises its full potential.
Thank you for taking the time to read this manual; we recommend you
keep it for future reference.
