Auvio HD tuner component 31-134 2009 - Black

Tested & Working - Digital Optical/Coaxial Out

Description:

Up for sale is a rare, bench-tested Auvio HD Radio Tuner (Model 31-134). If you are looking to add high-definition radio to your vintage silver-face stack or a modern home theater setup, this is widely considered one of the best ways to do it.

While most HD tuners are cheap portable units, this is a full-sized component designed for high-fidelity audio. It allows you to access HD1, HD2, and HD3 digital sub-channels that you can't get with a standard FM radio.

This model is a favorite in the audio community because of its connectivity. It features:

• Optical (Toslink) & Coaxial Digital Outputs: Bypass the internal DAC and run a pure digital signal directly into your high-end receiver or outboard DAC.

• Standard RCA Analog Outs: For compatibility with vintage integrated amps.

• Crystal Clear VFD Display: Great visibility in a dark rack.

• HD Multicasting: Pulls in those "hidden" local stations with no subscription fees.

Condition:

• Functionality: Fully tested. It pulls signals strongly and locks onto HD sub-channels quickly.

• Cosmetics: Excellent condition. The rear panel is clean (see photos) and the chassis is well-cared for.

• Note: This listing is for the tuner unit only. Remote is not included, though the front panel buttons allow for full navigation/tuning, and it is compatible with many universal remote systems.
