Press Release:   MOON Air Analog FM Tuner

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - 12/27/00


THE ART OF TECHNOLOGY  


Simaudio launches the MOON Air Analog FM Tuner

MOON Air Analog FM Tuner

Since introducing the MOON series, it's been our goal to offer a complete line of components. Enter the new MOON Air Analog FM Tuner. We strongly believe that FM radio is still considered a significant source where both music fans and audiophiles go to search out and discover new recordings, as well as further expand their musical tastes. The MOON Air will better allow for such endevors by bringing the listener closer to the musical broadcast than they have been accustomed to in the past. We opted for an analog FM design (rather than a phase locked loop digital circuit) for various reasons, the three most significant being 1) a more precise adjustment to the center of a desired station frequency, which in turn maximizes stereo separation 2) the ability for minimizing on-frequency interference by tuning slightly off center in certain situations such as when operating in urban centers and 3) superior sonic performance by maintaining the audio signal in the analog domain throughout the entire circuit.

Key Features:

  • Large digital display for station frequency
  • Front panel LED indicators for center tune, signal strength, multipath, stereo, mute & bandwidth
  • Two switchable antenna inputs for added flexibility
  • User defeatable Noise activated MUTE circuit
  • User selectable "Stereo Blend" control for automatic stereo separation control
  • Control of "Side band" interference through Ultra Wide/Narrow IF Band switch
  • Power supply with EMI filtration, sheilded toroidal transformer, ultra-linear capacitors & precision voltage stabilizers.
  • Remote control operation of all switching functions
  • Dual Automatic Gain Control (ACG) & Five stage analog front-end
  • Signal-to-noise ratio 76.0dB; Frequency response 15Hz - 17KHz; Stereo separation 60dB
  • RF circuit is always powered up resulting in optimal sonic performance
  • Heavy Duty chassis construction with mechanical grounding (common to all MOON products)
