Ease-Of-Use
Digital radios are much easier to use than analogue radios because they automatically search for all available stations. Once the radio has found all the available stations you just choose the one you want by name. No more trying to remember frequencies.

Wider Station Choice
With up to 55 DAB stations available in many areas, and more on the way, you’ll be spoilt for choice. As well as existing favourites like BBC radios 1-4, BBC radio 5 live, Classic FM and talkSPORT, there are also great exclusive-to-digital stations such as BBC 1Xtra, BBC 5 live Sports Extra, BBC 6 Music, BBC 7 and Planet Rock.

Digital Sound Quality
DAB is crackle-clear and hiss-free because it’s not subject to the same interference as analogue radio.

DAB Stations
There's more listening choice on DAB too. These great stations and many more are available in the UK on DAB digital radio. As DAB coverage varies, remember to check which stations are available in your area.

	Stereo Sound Twin 3" drive units provide a high quality stereo sound
	Line-in 3.5mm input enables you to connect an iPod, MP3 player or portable CD player and use the ONE Elite as a portable speaker
	ChargePAK An optional accessory for compatible models, ChargePAK is a rechargeable battery pack which fits into the battery compartment of your radio and charges when the radio is connected to the mains
	ReVu Allows you to pause live radio if you’re interrupted, rewind to listen again, or go to the beginning of a track to begin recording
	Kitchen Timer Handy countdown kitchen timer ideal for helping you time your cooking to perfection
	RDS Support for station name display on FM and RDS scrolling text
	Alarm Easy to use tone or radio alarm
	Clock with Sleep Timer Go to sleep with the radio on and it will power down after a set time
	Adjustable Bass and Treble Adjust the tonal range of the audio output to suit your preference
	TextSCAN This feature enables you to pause and control scrolling text: useful if you want to catch the title of a track, note down a competition phone number or rewind to catch a news item
	Intellitext Participating stations broadcast sports, news, or traffic reports which are stored on your radio so they are available on demand. Like Teletext on TVs, you can then search this stored scrolling text by category
	Presets 50 presets (DAB or FM)
	Headphone Output Listen through headphones (mutes speaker) or connect the headphone output to your stereo and use as a DAB tuner
	USB Upgradeability A USB upgradeable product is one you can add new features and improvements to as they become available.

Customer Reviews

Excellent DAB/FM Radio
I had previously had a Grundig DAB radio but really couldn't get any signal out of it where I lived.

This radio, by comparison, is clear as a bell. It sounds great whether listening to pop, rock, dance or classical. The Revu function is a bit like Sky+ and is a bit fiddly to use. I think its not really that practical to use, to be honest.

It can also function as a iPod dock which is quite a useful function too.

Well made, superb sound, great reception. What more do you want?

Excellent Radio
Read varied reviews decided worth going for. The build quality and solid feel of the radio is excellent. Reception is also very good, used it in a caravan in the middle of the Devon countryside also picked up good signal strength.Bought the battery pack for £27 delivered off ebay also works very well. Use on battery maximum of one hour a day so can't comment on longevity of charge, but recharges this amount fairly quickly as indicated on the display. Used the rewind a couple of times, worked well, took a couple of goes to fathom it out but now quite straightforward to use. Saving to memory and selecting saved stations also quite easy. Would buy another if I had to, cost me around £65 delivered .

Great Radio
Superb quality of sound and build quality. Ideal radio for a kitchen space with plenty of umph and stero quality.
