Pure Digital One Mini

Well folks it is time for the digital radio revolution. Aah, who am I kidding? I am getting into Digital Radio very late compared to when it first became available in the 1990s. I had an 18-year old twin cassette/radio player and was happy enough with the retro look and function of it, until it was finally sent to radio heaven by my builders last year. So new (almost) house and I need a radio for the kitchen.

A useful radio in England... don't take it on holiday! I bought the Pure Radio in England and it has been a useful companion to my kitchen. The white colour makes it very unintrusive and the sound is good for untrained ears, although I use it for Radio 4 mostly. The authomatic station search makes it very easy and quick to switch between stations, as well as the memory programming. In general, it is much better than the standard analogic radio. However, I have found that the reception was poorer in the basement that would have been with an standard radio. The main setback has been when taking it on holiday: digital channels are not available in other countries ...  Read the complete review
