Stereophile Class A component. Retail price is $1,695.00. Sound quality is great (cd quality on the balanced outputs). From the Stereophile review, which is on the Fanfare web site as a pdf: “Like the FT-1, the Fanfare FT-1A is an analog-tuned FM stereo receiver with digital frequency display and a choice of wide or narrow IF bandwidths. Tuning is carried out using the digital counter in 50kHz increments. The tuner's infrared remote control mirrors all front-panel functions. It has eight presets with UNISET programming control. The rated sensitivity remains excellent, requiring l5dBf in mono and 32dBf in stereo for 50dBf quieting. Selectivity is rated at a very respectable 75dB alternative channel, 25dB adjacent channel (Narrow mode). The capture ratio remains 1.5dB. The FT-1A also has balanced outputs, an option seen only on expensive audiophile tuners such as the Magnum Dynalab MD-202 and MD-208. The Fanfare has two unbalanced (RCA) output options, including two marked "HI" for line level audio output, and two marked "LO" which provide an unamplified, low- impedance audio signal direct from the tuner's multiplex filters.” In conclusion, the review states: “…the FT-1A an outstanding value in audiophile- grade FM stereo tuners. Best of all, the FT-1A gave up none of the FT-1's strengths, including excellent sensitivity, good quieting, and thoroughly musical sound. And it handled multipath as gracefully as did the Day Sequerra FM Reference.” This unit is in excellent condtion, with no scratches or dents. From a pet/smoke free home. Remote and operator manual (notebook) included, but no original box. Pay Pal adds 3%.
