The Arcam DiVA DT81, released in 2001, is a premium DAB tuner that receives digital radio broadcasts on both Band III (174-240MHz) and L-band (1452-1492MHz). It sets standards in sound quality and usability with 128 station storage, 16 presets, alphabetical station listing, FM tuner audio input bypass, and a high-clarity dot-matrix VFD display. Features include optical and coaxial digital outputs with SCMS, dynamic range compression, and full remote control. Designed in the UK, available in silver or black, it emphasizes superior L-band reception for future-proofing. Now discontinued.
