PURE Digital PocketDAB 1500 review
Although pocket-sized DABs are still bedevilled by reception problems, the 1500 is a welcome improvement. It's rather bulky, but relatively solid and well constructed, with well organised controls and a clear, bright LCD that offers lots of information Read more

PURE Digital Oasis review
A romper-stomping, reinforced-metal, panic room of a digital radio, the PURE Oasis is perfect for those who work outdoors -- it's water and dust resistant and the battery lasts for a mammoth 15 hours. A hefty investment, the Oasis will provide great-quality radio for years Read more

Dualit DAB Kitchen Radio review
Dualit is hardly a posterboy for subtlety and, true to form, this DAB is a glittering muscle car of a radio. If you're familiar with Dualit toasters, you'll have an idea of what to expect. It's brash, ostentatious, obscenely heavy, durable and seriously macho Read more

Denon TU-1800DAB review
Denon has done its best to make DAB an acceptable addition to the hi-fi separates system, but the medium's quality just isn't up to scratch at the moment. This is the best we've ever heard DAB sound -- but it's still nowhere near as good as a CD Read more

PURE Digital One review
The first DAB we've seen for under £50, the One is available in garish pink as well as trendy black or white, and functions well -- it offers the usual crackle-free digital radio reception, it's sturdy enough for service in the kitchen or the garden shed and it's very easy to use Read more

Denon S-81DAB review
The Denon S-81DAB is a reassuringly well-built CD player and radio with integrated amplifier and an iPod dock. Connectivity is good -- the unit includes an AK-P100 dock which lets you plug your iPod straight into the Denon for complete playback control -- and it puts up an excellent fight performance-wise Read more

Arcam solo review
Mini systems are often considered the hi-fi choice of dilettantes, but the Arcam solo, which integrates a 100W amplifier, CD player, FM and DAB radio, seeks to change that. The system borrows its components from other tried and tested Arcam models, such as the DT-91 -- an impressive heritage that explains why the unit sound so good Read more

PURE PocketDAB 2000 review
The PocketDAB 2000, as its name would suggest, is a pocket-sized DAB radio with the capability to record live radio in MP3 format onto removable SD cards. It provides surprisingly good quality sounds, but as with all portable DABs, reception is a major problem Read more

Yamaha CRX-M170 review
A mini system that will capably replace your existing hi-fi system in one fell swoop, the CRX-M170 integrates a 50W stereo amplifer with subwoofer output, a DAB radio and a CD player into a single unit -- we were surprised by what this fairly compact unit can deliver Read more
