Introduction

Thank you for choosing the PURE DRX-701ES Digital Radio Tuner.

optical S/PDIF digital output (48 kHz) for direct digital recording to MiniDisc, CD-R or DAT; AM/FM tuner line-level input with auto pass-through
to output at power off; optical RDI data output connector, headphone socket and USB port.
