The Azur 640T V2 incorporates the high performance Wolfson WM8740 24-bit/192 kHz DAC, ensuring the best possible results. This is the same model as fitted to the Azur 640C CD player, and gives both objective and subjective improvements in the tuner's sound quality. Signal to Noise and distortion figures have improved whilst, subjectively, you'll find the sound quality a good deal more natural and dynamic than before.

The state-of-the-art 640T V2 also features Natural Contour Technology (NCT), developed by Cambridge Audio to counter the sometimes 'flat' presentation of compressed digital sources (such as some low bit-rate DAB radio stations). Two settings are offered: 'Warm', which adds analogue-like warmth to 'digital' sounding programmes and 'Lively', which breathes life into the sound quality of heavily compressed programmes. Better still is that this unique system is now operational via the remote control and not just the rear of the case.
