SONY ST-SDB900 DAB/FM/AM Stereo Tuner hifi Separate Silver Quality unit RadioIt was designed back in 2004 as a result the tuner will not receive the newer DAB+ transmissions. The tuner is in silver colour and it has some marks on the casing, please see relevant pioctures. Overseas Buyers Please note this receives DAB (most UK stations) but not DAB+ which is the encoding used in some other countries so please check before bidding. Overseas postage is by fully tracked eBay Global Shipping Program which should include any necessary import duties however these are the responsiblity of the buyer so please check. Postage charge is set by eBay so out of my control. No original box, but it will be packed safe and securely. Please study the pictures as they are part of the description Thank you

This is a great opportunity to get a highly regarded tuner in perfect operational order, with a printout of the manual and the original remote control. At a standard width of 43cms this matches full width HiFi units from Sony and many other manufacturers, and is in the top-line QS range. The display is dimmable with two levels of brightness, and the usual display options for DAB and FM including a “Quality” signal bar chart. (see photo). I have not comprehensively tested AM but seems ok. You will of course need to retune as per manual unless you happen to live in the London area like us where it has been scanned and presets loaded. This is an enthusiasts audiophile unit, and as an early DAB receiver the DAB full scan loads stations in transmission frequency (i.e. ensemble) order, unlike modern portables that sort into alphabetic order. You can store your stations (99 presets available) in your preferred order and then conveniently access them by the tuning wheel. Clearly as it was released in 2004 this was before DAB+ (DAB PLUS) was introduced but all the main UK stations that justify high quality reception are transmitted in standard DAB. The originally supplied indoor aerials for DAB and FM are not included, but as an enthusiast you will probably want to use an external aerial unless you are very close to a transmitter. The FM performance is glorious and considerably superior to the tuner built in to my AV amp. I used a loft horizontal dipole pointing to the Wrotham, Kent transmitter about 60 miles away. The FM receiver is recognised as state of the art audiophile performance when fed with a good signal and I have certainly found that to be the case. As far as DAB performance is concerned, certainly BBC Radio 3 (192kbps) and Classic (128kbps) come over superbly but some other stations, where the data rate has been selected at a lower level to fit more stations into the available bands, leave a lot to be desired in terms of HiFi quality. The DAB front end is not as sensitive as later DAB tuners from Sony and others so you will almost certainly require an external aerial to get the maximum number of the various DAB transmitters, though I have tested it perfectly with a simple split wire dipole in a vertical configuration about 2 ft length, positioned indoors next to the tuner, but that does depend on your local situation. Happy to advise. Designed in 2004 the tuner will not receive the newer DAB+ transmissions. But as most of these DAB+ stations seem to be low data rate, and even mono transmissions, that will probably not be of concern. If you really want Wirral Radio or Fun Kids on DAB+ then Id recommend getting a modern DAB+ portable! I will include an article I wrote recently on DAB reception on some early Sony DAB/FM Tuners which may be of interest to HiFi audiophile enthusiasts. Normal T&Cs apply for private eBay sellers eg 30 day guarantee if not as described, but as I am a private seller I cannot respond to change of mind requests. Will be sent by fully tracked and insured courier and a signature will be required. Serial number and seal are in listing photos. Apologies for the high postage cost but this is a heavy item at 4.5 kilos and with adequate double boxed packaging will take me into the 5-10 Kilo postage bracket. UK postage only and for Highlands and Islands there may be an additional courier charge (contact me).Overseas Buyers Please note this receives DAB (most UK stations) but not DAB+ which is the encoding used in some other countries so please check before bidding.
