Aerial connectors – AVR600 only

The AVR600 is fitted with an AM/FM receiver module and Sirius connector or a DAB/FM receiver, depending on the region where it was sold. The type of aerial you need depends on your listening preferences and the local conditions.

Your AVR600 is capable of superb radio reception, but only if it is receiving a good quality transmission signal.

Try the aerials supplied with your unit. If you are in a medium to strong signal area, these should be adequate for good reception. In areas with poor signal strength, you may require a roof or loft mounted aerial.

Contact your local Arcam dealer or aerial installation experts for advice about local reception conditions.

In the UK the ‘T’‑elements
need to be positioned
vertically for DAB	�����	���
reception since broadcasts
are vertically polarised. In		��������
other localities, check with
	�����
your Arcam dealer or try

both horizontal and vertical positions for best reception.

Try each usable wall of the room to see which gives best reception and use tacks or adhesive tape to secure the aerial in a ‘T’ shape, but note that no tacks should come into contact with the

internal wire of the aerial.

When installed and receiving DAB, check the signal strength by pressing the front panel or remote control’s INFO button until the signal quality indicator is displayed.

In weak signal areas, a high- gain, externally-mounted or roof-mounted aerial is desirable in order to receive the highest number of services.

In Band III transmission areas (such as the UK), use a multi-

element Yagi aerial with the elements mounted vertically, as the transmissions are vertically polarised. If you are close to more than one transmitter, use an omnidirectional or folded dipole aerial.

If the DAB services in your area are transmitted on L-band, then ask your dealer for advice for the best aerial to use.

To listen to Satellite Radio, you’ll need to connect either a SIRIUS

or XM Satellite Radio tuner (sold separately) to your satellite-ready receiver. Satellite Radio is available to residents of the US (except Alaska and Hawaii) and Canada.

Satellite Radio delivers a variety of commercial-free music from categories ranging from Pop, Rock, Country, R&B, Dance, Jazz, Classical and many more plus coverage of all the top professional and college sports including play by play games from select leagues and teams. Additional programming includes expert sports talk, uncensored entertainment, comedy, family programming, local traffic and weather and news from your most trusted sources.

Whether you purchase a SIRIUS or XM tuner, you’ll need to activate and subscribe to begin enjoying the service. Easy to follow installation and setup instructions are provided with the satellite tuners. Whichever service you choose, there are a variety of programming packages available, including the option of adding “The Best of SIRIUS” programming to your XM tuner or “The Best of XM” programming to your SIRIUS tuner, enabling you to enjoy the most popular programming among both services. The “Best of” packages are not available to SIRIUS or XM Canada subscribers at this time.

Family friendly packages are also available to restrict channels featuring content that may be inappropriate for children.
