Manufacturer's Description:
The Creative SoundWorks 500DAB digital radio with FM delivers a stunning audio performance. With hi-fi grade stereo speakers created to complement its advanced circuitry, it is engineered for acoustic excellence. The results have to be heard to be believed, with separate treble and bass controls to help listeners adjust the audio to their exact needs. This premium quality system offers a full range of functions for ease of use, with 6 presets in both DAB and FM, an alarm function, and a stylish blue LCD display. It can also act as a stereo speaker system when connected to devices such as a Creative MP3 player.
DAB digital radio is a new way of broadcasting radio via a network of terrestrial transmitters. It provides listeners with more choice and information delivered in crystal clear, crackle-free sound quality.
The technology allows the receiver to lock on to the strongest signal it can find. With DAB digital stations there are no frequencies to remember, and sets are tuned by station name, so there's no retuning on the move.
Digital radio operation is made up of a single block of frequencies called a multiplex. Each multiplex works within a frequency spectrum, such as Band III for DAB broadcasts. If you buy a receiver in the UK it will be designed to pick up DAB signals on Band III only. You will receive only those stations within your transmission area.
Each DAB broadcaster (or multiplex operator) also provides text and audio data services. Some programmes are supported by Dynamic Label Segments (DLS). This is data which you can read as scrolling text on your DAB radio display. Some stations transmit the latest news, travel, and weather, what's on now and next, website addresses and phone numbers.
