| Review summary | This promising and very easy to use system is seriously let down by its poor sound quality. As a DAB radio alarm clock it's great, and if that's what you're after then it won't disappoint. It's just not a capable audio system, even in the bedside category Read full review |
Managing to combine DAB, FM and Internet radio in an attractive, compact and above all affordable package is no mean feat, but Revo has pulled it off with the Blik RadioStation. While the sound quality might not match the finest systems DAB has to offer, we feel most people will be more than happy with it Read full review |
PURE has dealt up one of the smartest DAB hi-fis we've seen so far. Rich, clear tone and a credible CD player will please any DAB listener. If you're a radio fan this is by far the best way to listen to DAB. The currently low bit rates of digital broadcast mean anything more is overkill, and anything less won't sound quite as good Read full review |
Arcam has a well-earned reputation for quality ear candy, so we're not surprised to find that in evidence here. If you're pushed for space but can't face giving up the finesse of your hand-picked hi-fi separates, this is the logical solution Read full review |

Philips AE5200
Great FM performance, but its DAB tuner is weak, so the AE5200 fell short of our expectations
