Thank you for purchasing your Azur 651T. We are confident that you will

enjoy many years of listening pleasure from it. Like all Cambridge Audio

products, the Azur 651T adheres to our three core principles – stunning

performance, ease of use and incredible value.

The  651T  supports  both  the  digital  DAB  and  analogue  FM/AM  radio

systems. For FM/AM the 651T features true analogue domain decoding of

FM/AM for best sound quality with this format.
For DAB broadcasts the built in digital radio tuner is compatible with both

the  DAB  and  DAB+  (AAC+  format)  standards  and  features  a  very  high

quality  WM8740  Digital  to  Analogue  converter  from  Wolfson

Microelectronics.
An  Azur  Navigator  remote  is  provided,  giving  full  remote  control  of  the

tuner functions and those of our amplifiers in an attractive and easy to

use handset.
The 651T 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 strongly recommended to get the best from

your 651T.
Thank you for taking the time to read this manual; we recommend you

keep it for future reference.

Cambridge Audio Technical Director
