CREEK T43
AM/FM TUNER
RELEASE AN UNLIMITED SOURCE OF FREE HIGH FIDELITY MUSIC BY SCANNING THE AIRWAVES WITH THE T43
FM radio has always provided a rich source of live and recorded music. The number of stations are constantly increasing which demands a high performance tuner to separate and convert radio signals into audio.
The Creek T43 employs the very latest circuitry, designed to operate in today's crowded airwaves. It can discriminate the weakest distant signal from next to a strong local one and still maintain low noise and the highest fidelity available from the radio station.
To simplify its operation, Creek engineers have reduced the number of local functions to a minimum. These are tuning Mode AM/FM band, Scan, Mono. These are also available via remote control.
While the majority of synthesized tuners today use buttons to tune-in stations and select pre-set station memory, the T43 uses a rotary tuning knob connected to a digital encoder to provide tuning and pre-set station selection, in a way that makes this digital tuner of the 90's feel like a good old analogue tuner of the 80's.
The T43 uses a dual conversion method of retrieving radio signals which combined with a broadly tuned front-end serves to improve the selectivity of the T43 to the highest level. Surface mount technology and the use of double sided screened printed circuit boards provides a high level of interference suppression.
Custom Creek software has been written to drive all the controls via a two wire digital bus. Local AFC also allows the digital bus to be switched-off when not in use, maintaining even lower levels of digital interference to the radio signal.
