A NOTE FROM ADCOM

Thank you and congratulations on your purchase of the ADCOM GTP-760 Digital Processing Tuner/Preamplifier. The GTP-760 forms the centerpiece of a truly leading edge home theater system. To deliver the highest possible performance, ADCOM designers and engineers utilized the most advanced digital signal processing “engines” available, the Motorola 56000 series. The GTP-760 actually uses three processors in combination, two 56009’s and one 56007, for full 24-bit Dolby Digital and DTS decoding with digital bass management. In addition, we chose high precision six channel 20-bit Digital-to-Analog converters and all Class A analog output circuits for the finest possible sound.
