The Alpha 8 tuner, like all Arcam tuners, has sound quality as the primary design goal. When you compare it with mass-market tuners, thie difference is readily apparent. For convenience, it offers 16 FM and 8 AM presets. The Alpha 8 matches Arcam’s other Alpha components in both sound quality and style. It has the same technical and sonic performance as the Alpha 7 tuner. In addition, its main functions may be operated by infra-red remote control. Use of the Philips RC-5 remote codes means the Alpha 8 tuner can also be used in conjunction with other brands of high quality hi-fi which use the same remote protocol. This makes the Alpha 8 tuner ideal for multi-room systems. And, to make it even more versatile, the tuner is fitted with two pairs of audio output sockets (one pair for your main hi-fi and the second for another zone or multi room controller). All the tuner’s functions are clearly indicated on the Alpha 8’s custom-built backlit LCD display.
