Roberts Gemini 15 RD-15 DAB Radio,
By
This review is from: Roberts RD15 Personal Radio (Electronics)
I have been looking for some time for a well priced DAB radio, having not been conned into buying the first ugly wooden one that came along. The Roberts DAB has a nice feel to it, and its white smooth front, rear and side panels are a break away from the bland looking machines that have been on offer up to this point. Only the top is grey, not the face and rear, so don't be confused by the sales image which looks a boring grey all over. The sound quality out of the single speaker is crisp and the tuning is simplicity itself. The 5 preset (CHROMED)buttons work the same as any car radio i.e. hold the button and save the station. The display is green and there is a backlight. In conclusion this machine has a modern feel, at a good price and easy to use. Please note also that where I live there is supposed to be low reception, but not according to this machine as it detects all major stations without garble or breakage of signal.

I bought this radio especially for the World Cup 2006 and is without doubt the greatest radio i have ever bought. i know it's only a radio but the reception from DAB is CRYSTAL CLEAR on this radio and the design is absolutely terrific as you can use it anywhere especially if your going on the beach or having a nice beer sitting on the common. i like the fact that it scans the stations instantly and even though it has one speaker the sound is terrific , if you want stereo , use headphones ,the sound is amazing. i take this radio to work with me and even my workmates love it as we can listen to PLANET ROCK,ARROW ROCK and other stations you would never recieve on a normal radio.
i recommend this as the best DAB radio to buy for it's sleekness and performance FANTASTIC!!!!!

Roberts Gemini 15 (RD15) DAB Radio,
By Lindosland (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Roberts RD15 Personal Radio (Electronics)
Having tried many DAB's and hated them, I can recommend this one. It's small and light to pick up, has reasonable sound quality, and is quick to operate. It also has good battery life as DAB's go(they tend to use a lot of power - this one only takes 260mA at 6V). Scanning for stations is fast, and stations and presets appear to be saved in flash memory - some DAB's take ages to scan and forget everything if you take the mains or batteries away. It's also more sensitive than most - full strength reading in Woodbridge, where a Sharp (the worst - I tried 3 of them) went garbled all the time. Nice orange display. Note that the headphone output is very bass heavy on good headphones, owing to the fact that bass emphasis has been applied to boost speaker performance. This would be a good feature, if it had not been set to too low a frequency for the speaker(I think it could be improved on by the designers. The bass boost is too fierce for most headphones, and a headphone socket should have a flat response to allow use of the best headphones (I used Sennheiser HD650.
