Now thats what I call a tuner)

Pity it's been made obsolete by the audio feeds on Freeview :-)


See below....



Listen old son.. Let me tell and educate you.. that tuner is one of
the
best in the world, ever!.


I've tried to blag it off Pat a few times now, but he ain't listening!!
:-)

See it here (extreme bottom of the pic) in an even more cramped location
than my own listening kiosk. Note also the weedy little speakers he's
got
on
it!!

http://www.apah69.dsl.pipex.com/show/cramped.JPG


Needless to say, he's running it off a Halo in the loft an' all!!



One is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SPEECHLESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




We don't call him Pat the **** for nothing!! ;-)



Its only limitation is what the broadcasters supply it with.

It will **** on DAB..well it would, but its too refined to do
that!....


I am in a postion now to swap between FM/DAB/Freeview with single button
presses on the one zapper - the other day Radio 2 was at apparently
identical loudeness and there was *no discernable difference* between
DAB
and Freeview.

You surprise me there...



Nope - I gave the zapper to Swim showed her which two buttons to press and
said 'pick the best one'!!

(Before you mention it - the kit is considered supremely *clear* by all
who've heard it!!)




So you reckon that Radio 2 on DAB is "no discernible difference" to 3
view at 192 K ?.....



Not on that occasion, at any rate - I haven't tuned to R2 since.....

Now for another looksee at the shiny new gadgets!! :-)

Here's a better pic and write-up [Google Beta Japanese translation] of what
looks like the same one; then go back to the main index at the bottom and
marvel at wonderful pics of other high-end products - especially the speakers!
Mind you I've only worked through all the speakers and most of the amps so
far. Each large "thumbnail" links to a much more extensive indiviual page.
Probably find the later Sony CD in the CD section - I haven't looked at them.

and I since have:- it isn't there. Nevertheless ...

And I forgot to mention the turntables.

Also :=}))

You mean the KENWOOD L-02T?

As opposed to the other L-0x on that page? Really?
You would know!

I like this bit about the L-O2T

Actually the more I read it the more I appreciate it! 7-s cap etc.& much more!
Maker of transmitters & receivers. I can see how it appeals and may be super
(lative!)
All the "Japlish" (or maybe 'Engjap'?) starts to make sense ...

PS: But what really intrigues is the origin of the translated "the potato"...
Shades of elsewhere discussions on "potato amps" (ie simple SET etc!)

Don't forget all those early music orchestras that tune to 415 and a
whole slew of other frequencies in that vicinity. Luckily there are no
pianos involved - just harpsichords.




** 415 is exactly one semitone below 440.

Play that on a chromatic instrument without retuning.

Most proferssional woodwind and brass players can transpose
prima vista. A semitone is quite easy.
