Cambridge AXR100

Just got this today - hooked it up and listening to some FM right now. I wasn't expecting much from the FM but it's surprisingly nice sounding (roof UHF/VHF/FM antenna).

Connected a Bluesound Node via coax to the receiver's internal dac and it works well. Withholding judgment on the internal dac until I can compare it to an external dac.

So far, so good. That FM is great though. Oh, the display is RDS.

Looks nice, congrats! I'd be interested in your thoughts as you get some more time with it. I bought the AXA35 last year, and kind of wish I had went with the AXR100 instead.

Thanks. The AXA35 looks like a nice unit but I really wanted FM so the '100.

One other thought - when you have time, it would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the Cambridge's internal DAC vs the Node's. The Node has an analog output, doesn't it?

Yeah, the Node has an internal dac/analog out. I don't have it connected right now but will give it a try.
