5.0 out of 5 stars Sublime, 1 May 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Pure Evoke 1XT DAB Digital Radio - Maple (Electronics)
I bought one of these as a Christmas present for my better 'arf. I confess I blenched a bit at the thought of spending £90 on a radio, but in retrospect it was one of the best purchases I have made. We both listen to a *lot* of radio, and a quality product like this becomes a necessity, not a luxury or lifestyle choice.
The sound is superb, even from that little speaker. It's incredibly simple to operate: it tunes itself in when first turned on and all one needs to do is to twiddle the dialing knob to the station one wants and then press it. The presets are a godsend as well.
It comes with a timer function, and an alarm clock: unlike most radio alarms it doesn't lose its set time when unplugged, so you can take the radio around the house knowing you won't sleep in late the following morning.
What's more, it looks good: a clean, spare and elegant design that doesn't bother with useless gimmicks like flashing blue LED's. If you like to listen to your radio as the broadcaster intended, get one. You will not regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb digital radio, 24 Mar 2006
By A Customer
This review is from: Pure Evoke 1XT DAB Digital Radio - Maple (Electronics)
The Pure Evoke-1xt looks very elegant and "human" with its rounded maple wood cabinet and aluminium speaker grille, handle, and silver plastic fascia.

This combination of clean wood and modern materials lends the relatively hi-tech device a warm and comforting feel.

The body sits on 4 small rubber feet and is relatively small and dinky.

The display is bright and clear, a 2 line white on blue LCD matrix displaying information such as station, song info, signal strength, time etc. It is easily legible at night time.

The controls are very easy to use, with large rotary dials. There is no tuning like analogue radio- instead the Pure finds all the stations available and then the user selects the station from a list by turning the dial, and then pressing the dial in to select the station.

The sound quality is very clear and akin to CD. There is no hiss because of the Xt's sound filtering circuits, as well as the digital signal. The speaker is reasonably bassy and dynamic and sing when whacked up, belittling its small size, and handles all types of music well.

Id recomend this radio to anyone as it is well designed, easy to use, and delivers good quality radio sound, and really does "evoke" a better atmosphere than the all-plastic radios that are commonplace today.

Pure were the first manufacturers to release a digital receiver at around £100 and this unit has been thoroughly reliable as I have owned it for over 14 months now.

I use this radio a lot, and is great to settle down with on a quiet night.

5.0 out of 5 stars what a pleasure!, 5 Jan 2005

FIONA STOW "corribheights" (London, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pure Evoke 1XT DAB Digital Radio - Maple (Electronics)
I was given one of these for Christmas. After suffering the irrations for years of breakthrough 'tower block' radio stations that inevitably occurs in London, even across the strongest BBC signals, it is wonderful to have nothing but clear reception. I can't do a technical review, but suffice it to say that the ease of tuning (no more hissing and crackling), the clear reception, the precision of the volume knob are a delight. Ditto the endlessly changing LCD display so you always know what you are listening to, even in the middle of the night because it lights up. It is solid enough to not be flimsy, without being heavy, and has very good rubber feet so it doesn't slip, or damage any surface. Mine could only be better if it had a rechargeable battery - because I carry it all around the house with me.

Highly recommended!
