User manual AUDIO ANALOGUE PRIMO VT TUNER REV 2.0 REV1.0

[. . . ] Dear Audiophile, congratulations and thank you for choosing Primo VT Tuner. To celebrate the first century from the invention of the tube, Audio Analogue presents Primo VT Tuner, equipment that combines modern and tubes technology. Modern technology is used for tuning while tubes technology is used in the output stage: it allows making the most of the tubes and highlighting its sound qualities. We selected all the high-quality, low-tolerance passive components of the unit for their specifications and, most important at of all, after long listening tests. [. . . ] Please refer to "Radio stations storage" paragraph for further details about storage procedure. Pressing this button forces the unit to monophonic mode. When this option is enabled, the STEREO LED turns red. To return to normal mode, just press this button once. When the unit is in stereophonic mode, the STEREO LED turns green when the incoming signal is stereophonic, otherwise it stays off. Pressing this button when the unit is in normal mode tunes the radio on the station stored in the memory allocation that follows the last selected allocation. When the unit exits the Standby mode and when changing modulation type, pressing this button tunes the radio on the station stored in the 1st memory allocation. If no radio station is stored into the selected allocation, an EMPTY signal shows on the display and the radio switches back to the previous station. When in "Storage" mode, pressing this button allows choosing the memory allocation where to store the selected radio station. Please refer to "Radio stations storage" paragraph for further details about storage procedure. Please refer to "Stored Radio stations tuning" paragraph for further details about radio stations tuning. Pressing this button when the unit is in normal mode tunes the radio on the station stored in the memory allocation that precedes the last selected allocation. When the unit exits the Standby mode and when changing modulation type, pressing this button tunes the radio on the station stored in the 18th memory allocation. If no radio station is stored into the selected allocation, an EMPTY signal shows on the display and the radio switches back to the previous station. When in "Storage" mode, pressing this button allows choosing the memory allocation where to store the selected radio station. Please refer to "Radio stations storage" paragraph for further details about storage procedure. Please refer to "Stored Radio stations tuning" paragraph for further details about radio stations tuning. Pressing this button changes modulation type. Left and Right out: please connect these outs to your integrated amplifier/preamplifier line inputs using a RCA interconnect cable. 4) IEC standard power inlet where to connect the provided power cord. cavo di alimentazione di rete 5) Fuses. If necessary, replace with others of same kind (see back panel). [. . . ] RADIO STATIONS TUNING It is possible to tune in radio stations by two different functions: SEARCH (it is activated by pressing one of the SEARCH buttons on the front panel of the unit or on the remote controller) and SCAN (it is activated by holding for one second one of the SEARCH buttons on the front panel of the unit or one of the SCAN button on the remote controller). The SEARCH function allows modifying the selected frequency by one step, while the SCAN function increase/decreases the frequency according to the button you pressed until the unit finds a radio station (if this is not possible, the whole bandwidth is scanned to get back to the frequency level previous to the pressure of the SCAN). The quickest way to tune in a radio station is to use the SCAN function first then the SEARCH function for fine tuning. Enter in "memorizing" mode by pressing and leaving the STORE button on the remote controller or by pushing the "STORE" switch on the front panel. [. . . ]
