The Magnum Dynalab MD106T Triode Output Tuner
Introduced in 2003, the MD 106T is one of our flagship products here at Magnum Dynalab. As the original offering in our successful series of Hybrid FM tuners, the MD 106 Triode is the first of Magnum Dynalab's FM tuners to use tube technology in the amplification stage. Consistent with our design philosophy to separate the analog R.F. section and the audio section, the MD 106T provides a Magnum tuner for those customers with a special partiality for the tube experience.
Like all Magnum Dynalab tuners, the MD 106T uses an in-house analog front end design that utilizes a specially aligned five stage front end with precise hand-matched components in the critical areas. This design and selection process allows us to maximize sensitivity and selectivity while minimizing distortion, so that the signal sent to the audio section is pure. To complement this world class R.F. section, Zdenko Zivkovic has designed a world class triode audio section to insure the performance characteristics that customers have come to expect from Magnum Dynalab. Zdenko has paid special attention to three areas of the design.
First and the most important, is getting a complete grounding circuit so that there are not any stray ground path signals that will alter the micro-information, allowing the listener to grasp the full emotion of the music.
Secondly, the design of the power supply utilizes a special path and high-grade components, which eliminates any ripple effect from the AC source that would interfere with the nuances in the music.
Lastly but no less important is the zero feedback design that does not alter the original waveform. Zdenko has a passion for the music, and the design in the 106's audio section accomplishes his goal to allow our customers to feel the same passion for the music as he does.
Zdenko Zivkovic has many world class A tube-designed products to his credit. He has been designing tube audio sections for over 20 years, and we are proud to have him on the Magnum Dynalab team.
Why Analog?
Magnum Dynalab specializes in the research and development of ANALOG FM tuners as well as antennas. Many people question why we are one of the only companies that builds a truly ANALOG FM tuner and ANALOG remote control. The answer is very simple. The best SOUND can only be produced when the signal received by the tuner is tuned and maintained in the ANALOG domain. By maintaining the signal in the ANALOG domain the customer has infinite tuning across the FM band; this is achieved by the use of a knob instead of the pushbutton step function tuning offered by a digital tuner. Because of our design in the manufacturing cycle, the front end and the IF (intermediate frequency) amplifiers are precision aligned, which guarantees that all specifications are met all the time; this is not possible in a digitally tuned tuner, as they are dependent on the tolerances of the components.
By calibrating and aligning the IF (intermediate frequency) amplifiers we are optimizing SOUND, SENSITIVITY and SELECTIVITY.
We ask that you listen and compare any of our tuners against the competitors' similarly priced units and decide.
