DAB Radio

17 replies

I too enjoy DAB so know where you are coming from, my two units are and can recommend both:

  • Ruark R1 - Really nice design and perfect for listening to Radio 4, it has dual alarm, DAB, DAB+ RDS FM, Bluetooth, USB charging port and is from a UK multi award winning company.

 

 

 

  • Sony XDR-SR10DAB - Wide sound and really looks like a '70s transistor radio (main selling point to me) but no alarm and sluggish controls.

Ok neither have B&O sound quality but both are nice designs and quality built, the Ruark definitely has the upper hand being more modern, ergonomically designed controls and a small footprint. 

If you haven't already have a look at What Hi-Fi's DAB radio

Get the oneremote dk DAB unit and keep your B&O control

Thanks everybody🤒

Oh yes, well done Mark, I forgot about the Ruark R1. Chris this would very much impress you for its sound quality and design from a small British company.

Have the Tivoli since my Beosound 3 broke : excellent all the family is happy.

Exists in different shapes, sizes, battery or not, and DAB.

Hi all,

Although this is an older thread, I thought I'd share what i found when looking for a new kitchen unit.

I think most wil agree that the specs and functions of the Grundig Sonoclock 895 WEB DAB+ is well beyond "decent".
10 DAB+ channels, 10 FM channels, 10 Internet radio stations, AUX input, USB-stick input that plays MP3, WMA, FLAC, WAV und AAC  and Spotify should satisfy most.

 

All the best,
Henrik B.

Amazon Echo - voice operated and BBC now go direct rather than though Tune In.  Completely brilliant.
