Mono-Tasking Means Less Distraction
Do one thing. Do it well. Not bad advice, and Yamaha listened. If you're looking to add precision AM/FM radio reception to your pantheon of audio priorities, then look no further than the Yamaha TX-497. The TX-497's high-quality tuning capabilities derive from its direct Phase-Locked Loop Intermediate Frequency (PPl IF) Count Synthesizer Tuning system, which combines direct PPL tuning performance with a microprocessor-controlled IF count process to lock precisely onto the broadcast frequency for crystal-clear reception. In addition, an Absolute Linear Phase IF Amplifier maximizes interference rejection, phase linearity, and stereo separation. Spare yourself the degree in sound engineering; what you need to know is that all this translates into fantastic sound.
User-Friendly Functionality
The TX-497 AM/FM Tuner has a slew of convenient preset options to make your life easier. To start with, it presets the 40 strongest FM stations in your listening area, as soon as you plug it in. You won't have to hunt for the signals that belong to those radio stations most people listen to most the time. Plus, you'll be able to edit those preset stations into clusters that best reflect your moods, or the various tastes of different members of your family. No more pop starlets where Dad expected to find Dvorak, and vice versa. Let's suppose for a moment that you're not the kind of person who listens to the stations everyone else wants to hear. Whether you are tuning in alien conspiracy theorists out of Nevada, or renegade Mexican radio out of Juarez, you'll be able to pinpoint your frequency using either the Auto or Manual search modes on the TX-497.
