Cambridge Audio Azur 840C

Connections:12v trigger in/out, control bus in/out, IR emitter in.

Took my 840C in for repairs today, second time since new. This is a good sounding unit when working, I use the digital input for a Squeezbox, server system and sounds very good.4 stars for sound and flexability, 3 stars for quality issues.
