Terratec DR1000 User Manual

For RadioHeads!

Digital Radio – Full-bodied, noise-free sound from the airwaves, can only be heard from digital! DR 1000,

the DAB receiver of the newest generation, cuts a remarkably elegant figure with its stylish housing, with
shiny blue display and pure aluminium front. Featuring a radio sound of unheard-of dynamics and roomy
transparency, it offers the audiophile's ear the fitting acoustic experience.

Even those who want to experience their beloved FM station until the bitter end (of analog) will be well
served by choosing the DR 1000: thanks to an uncompromising FM tuner with extensive RDS functionality,
no FM station will escape unheard.

Connections Wanted – The audio connection to the outside world is, of course, both analog and digital –
for both FM and DAB! In the DR 1000, the analog signals are quickly transformed into digital format, so that
the same variety of stations is available for both the analog and digital optical outputs. One separate
antenna input each for the digital and analog radio signals are located on the rear.

By automatic regulation of the input sensitivity, the different signal strengths of FM and DAB are optimally
equalized. No matter if it travels via cable or antenna, the sensitive radio signal finds its way. A
controllable headphone output on the front for nighttime use rounds out the all-around talent.

Luxury is great! – Using the 40 station presets, you can access your choice of FM and DAB stations from a
complete station list of up to 159 entries. A very few control panel elements are located on the front of the
housing, where the endless dial for menu control has a central prominence. Those who value the retro
feeling can, now as before, use this dial to cruise through the entire frequency spectrum.

The slim HiFi component can, of course, also be controlled conveniently with the remote control. Thanks to
RDS Radio Text and Dynamic Label, the display provides information about such important things in life as
song title, station name, current date and time, as well as everything else the station chooses to transmit
to its listeners using this service. If, for any reason, you should miss one of these messages, you can
retrieve the last 10 messages from the text memory.

And finally... – A radio is a radio is a radio... With its classy appearance, and either silver or matte black
aluminum front, the DR 1000 will fit into almost any HiFi system.
