What is it: A bedside DAB alarm clock radio
What we think: We're not sure how PURE Digital did it, but the Chronos makes bedside radios glamorous. Decent DAB reception and four independent alarms mean this is a very desirable radio

| Review summary | The Chronos is a breeze to set up and delivers straightforward DAB radio in an attractive chassis. Complaints about low bit rates are moot when you're listening to DAB broadcasts through the veils of sleep. This is the ultimate alarm clock, and a must for anyone who's looking for programmable alarms to wake them at different times each day Read full review |
The PURE Digital Evoke Flow makes listening to online radio easy, and it looks good, too. By integrating a search engine and supplementing the Evoke Flow with an online portal, PURE has delivered the iPod of Web-connected radios. It's a device that makes online radio not only usable, but accessible and fun. We highly recommended it Read full review |
By focusing on a radio's core features, Tivoli has, in the Model DAB, produced a device that sounds great and is a joy to use. It's effortlessly stylish, and the buttons, switches and dials are a tactile delight. It isn't cheap, but this is a quality radio that could well outlast your local station's licence Read full review |
A brilliantly designed digital radio that will suit anyone who wants a bit of rock 'n' roll in their kitchen, study or bedroom Read full review |

Vita Audio R2i
Thanks to its built-in iPod dock and great set of speakers, it could satisfy all your hi-fi needs
Philips AE5200
Great FM performance, but its DAB tuner is weak, so the AE5200 fell short of our expectations
