Hi.Assuming it is a FM tuner, its specs is generally lower than a CD player, & much much lower than DVD-audio player, the 'big brother' of
CD player with much much better sound & specs than the best CD player.Specs of a FM tuner:
(1) Audio frequency response: typically, 50Hz - 14KHz
(2) Total harmonic distortion (1KHZ at 100& modulation):
typically, 0.2% mono & 0.4% stereo
(3) Stereo seperation: typically, 35dB, not better than LP.I would call FM programms mid-Fi. So, I would not spend too much money on exotic interconnects on it.
That said, I still listen to background music programmes from my
antique Northern Electric AM tabletop radio (cir 1935s) when I am behind my DIY workbench.c-J
