The Akurate Tuner is RDS-enabled, so displays related FM broadcast information, including station and programme names, and Radio Text, such as current and next track, contact details for competitions, etc. where available. The DAB version also displays Radio Text.
One hundred presets can be stored on the Akurate Tuner with direct access to your 10 favourite stations.
The Akurate Tuner is multi-room enabled which means that you can enjoy music throughout your home as part of a Linn Knekt multi-room system.
Available in black or silver finish, the Akurate Tuner perfectly complements all other components in the Akurate System.
* DAB version is sold in areas where DAB broadcasts are available. Contact your local Linn retailer for more details.
