Denon D-M35DAB review

The Denon D-M35DAB Micro Component System is a good all-rounder, and would be great for either the bedroom or the living room. With CD, tuner and various connection options on the back, you can use it as a stand-alone unit or integrate it into your home-entertainment system 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

PURE Digital DMX-50 review

The DMX-50 calls on PURE's expertise both in small speaker-cabinet design, and in higher-end digital-to-analogue conversion circuitry. It integrates a CD player and a 40W RMS amplifier, looks more expensive than it is, and offers rewind and pause of DAB playback. Sound quality is good too, as far as DAB allows 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

Intempo RDI review

The iPod doesn't have a radio, let alone DAB, so an iPod speaker system with a digital radio built in has to be a good idea -- Intempo's RDI docking system is that good idea, and it offers a sleek design, good reception and impressive sound quality for the price 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

LG FA163DAB review

LG's latest CD micro system is the FA163DAB -- catchy, huh? -- and with it comes DAB radio and iPod docking functionality. There aren't a million iPod-compatible DAB systems in the world, and even fewer that conform to this form factor. Plus, the FA163DAB costs less than £200 Read more

PURE Digital Chronos iDock review

The PURE Digital Chronos iDock is a triangle-shaped waker-upper. Using it is extremely straight-forward and simple. For technophobes or grandparents experiencing DAB for the first time, PURE's iDock won't offer any confusion and it'll be a perfect bedside companion Read more

Sony CMT-GPX9DAB review

Sony's CMT-GPX9DAB micro system is cheap and cheerful, with reasonable, low-volume sound quality, good reception and lots of preset slots. However the controls are unintuitive and overly reliant on the remote, and we have no idea what a tape deck is doing on it Read more
