Audio Design Associates Launches HDM-1 HD Radio Tuner Module

The company claims that the HDM-1 module is compatible with both new and existing ADA products including: TSS-1 single tuner ($999), Duo Tuner ($2,199), Tune Suite Quadritune ($2,399), Suite 8100 multi-room receiver ($4,199), and the HD PRO tuner. All ADA tuners are data controlled, and when enabled with the HD Radio module, capable of receiving multicast programming and displaying associated program information such as call letters, artist name and song title.





HD Radio technology transmits digital audio and data alongside existing AM and FM analog signals, allowing listeners with HD Radio-compatible receivers to enjoy dramatically improved sound quality, while virtually eliminating the static and hiss often associated with analog radio.

Beyond delivering superior sound, the technology provides a platform for advanced new services, including multicasting – a feature that enables FM stations to broadcast multiple streams of programming over a single frequency, independent of existing analog signals. Multicasting is quickly expanding the number and variety of program offerings available to radio listeners. HD Radio technology also allows for data services to be delivered directly to receivers, including scrolling text on the product displays (e.g., artist names & song titles, weather forecasts, school closings).
