The T21 is an advanced tuner for sophisticated systems that provides Primare
performance and build quality with an intuitive user interface. Every component
of the T21 Tuner has been designed to achieve the highest possible audio
performance.
Enjoy FM reception at its best
The T21 Tuner uses Primare's proven design approach to guarantee the highest
quality sound across the entire FM bandwidth. With a good aerial, FM
broadcasts should give you close to CD quality sound.
Provides the latest Radio Data System features
The Primare T21 also provides all the benefits of the Radio Data System or
RDS, to display the station name, program type, and text information from the
tuned station.
No compromise power supply for the highest possible
performance
The T21 has three separate, regulated power supplies for ultra-low noise
operation. The result is extremely high signal to noise ratio, allowing you to
take full advantage of the dynamic range available from FM broadcasts.
Careful design for mechanical stability
As with all Primare units, the T21 Tuner is housed in an alloy, heavy gauge
steel chassis, which provides strength, rigidity, and screening, while being
effective at damping vibrations from external sources. The front panel design
isolates the display circuitry from the audio circuitry to avoid interference.
Intuitive user interface
In keeping with the philosophy of the Primare range of systems, the T21 can
be controlled through a very simple and intuitive interface, designed so that it
will not distract you from the pleasure of listening to music on your system.
In fact most of the features of the T21 can be accessed through just nine front
panel push buttons. Alternatively, some of the functions of the T21 can be
controlled by the optional C31 Remote Control, along with the other Primare
components in your system.
