Linn FM/AM/DAB TUNER - Manual (Page 9)

Introduction
At Linn, we believe that music is fundamental to human well-being,
whether it be music you know well and love, or something you have
never heard before that delights you. The number and variety of radio
stations that are available ensures that tuners are an excellent way of
discovering music that is new to you, and the addition of digital
transmission to radio broadcasting means that this range of stations
has never been wider.
The FM/AM/DAB AKURATE Tuner is an advanced source product
developed from engineering experience built up over three decades. It
is designed to offer superb performance from FM, AM and DAB radio
bands, and will provide you with many years of listening pleasure.
The AKURATE Tuner is the perfect partner for Linn’s AKURATE
KONTROL pre-amplifier and AKURATE power amplifier range. Add the
AKURATE CD and AKURATE loudspeakers and experience the
exceptional sound quality delivered by this dedicated music system.
Installation
It is strongly recommended that the AKURATE Tuner is installed and
configured by an authorised Linn retailer.

The AKURATE Tuner is supplied with the following accessories:
• luminous handset

We recommend you retain the packaging in case you need to

Positioning
You can position your AKURATE Tuner almost anywhere you find
convenient (including in a 19” rack, for which a mounting kit is
available – consult your retailer), but please consider the following
points:
• The unit should be placed on a flat, stable and rigid surface.
• Do not position the unit where sunlight can shine (whether
directly, diffused or reflected) on its display as the infra-red (IR)
radiation in sunlight will be picked up by the unit’s IR remote
sensor and this can adversely affect its operation. Similarly,
some electrical devices such as plasma TVs, fluorescent lights
and energy saving lamps can emit IR which can likewise affect
the operation.
