Amazing unit
5 out of 5 stars
Amazing unit
Having read previous reviews on amazon I lowered my expectations on overall build quality. However when it arrived I was extremely impressed. The hinge on the back is also very well made. I have quite a bit of Bang and Oulfsen and Bose Audio Equipment and build quality is equally matched with those. Sound quality is impressive too for something this size, although I only tend to listen to 1950s rock n roll, and older recordings prefer mono etc.It looks superb on my desk next to my vintage camera lamp & lava lamp etc.

    I have wanted this radio for so long, and finally treated myself to it recently.
    It matches our kitchen decor beautifully and just looking at it makes me smile.
    DAB is amazing - no more tuning or complications, it simply tunes itself. The sound is great, and it's easy moving between stations. I think it has a host of other features, such as the ability to pause, which I haven't used yet.

    I love having a radio in the kitchen as I cook - this has really enhanced my time in the kitchen.

    I know other reviewers have commented on the casing - I can't do so yet as the radio is still new, but it looks well built to me.

    As a final note, the price on Amazon is better than elsewhere, as is the selection of colours.

    In short, whilst it is expensive, it is a beautiful and functional product that will provide much joy to its recipient!

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 August 2014
    Verified Purchase
    Well made, great sound, easy to use and looks great. I am going through the mains so I have mine positioned in one place all of the time. Using to carry about all the time, I am not sure the strap would be reliable. Not sure if the strap broke and it fell to the floor whether the casing would stand up to it. Anyone using batteries I figure it will work out costing a lot. They should have allowed for rechargeable batteries with charger thrown in the package. After all the purchase price was relatively high. Other than that as far as I am concerned a great buy.

The product is extremely simply to setup and use going forwards, and with it's retro look, it clearly appeals to a wide market currently looking for that style of product to add to any room in the house. It's fairly weighty, but in a good way - it feels solid and well built. Would certainly recommend.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 June 2012
    Verified Purchase
    I bought this set because I want to listen to The World Service and Radio Four Extra without having to rely on the internet and because I like to take my radio from room to room with me. My main reason for buying the RD60 was it's claim of up to 120 hours running time on battery, I've only just switched it on for the first time so I don't yet know how true that claim is. I also wanted a traditional style radio with basic controls. It sounds GOOD even without a tone control, and that goes for FM as well as DAB. It looks like a real radio. The volume goes all the way up without distorting speech, plenty loud enough to drown out the usual domestic noises. I would have preferred a nice "click on click off" type of on/off switch rather than the "touch type" and I am a bit worried about its longevity. I see it has a low battery warning light which might be useful. Well, so far so good anyway. It is expensive but then I love my radio and listen to it a lot so I feel justified in spending £150 on it. LONG LIVE THE LICENCE FEE! LONG LIVE THE BBC!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Satisfying retro
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 September 2009
    Verified Purchase
    A few years ago I bought one of the earliest Roberts DAB radios (model RD-1) and have been rather disappointed in its sound quality, which is slightly muffled. When its electronic tuning started to malfunction I decided it was time for a replacement, and the RD60 caught my eye.

    The design imitates the iconic retro Roberts style, yet the DAB technology and range of available stations is firmly contemporary. The sound quality is very good and to my mind noticeably better than the RD-1 (though still mono) and the controls easy to use. The full range of digital stations is available but selected stations can be added to a 'favourites' list to avoid excessive scrolling through unwanted stations. FM stations are also available. There is an input jack so that you can play an MP3 player through the radio and there is also an earphone jack. An on-line version of the instruction manual is available on the Roberts website for those who wish to see full operating details before purchasing.

    I am very happy with this radio. The main drawback compared with the RD-1 is that only one line of station information is available. Scrolling is therefore necessary and could be smoother with better quality lettering, but this is a very minor criticism. There is also no capability for record/replay or SD card recording, but this is not a feature that I particularly need and hardly ever used on the RD-1. If you are looking for a DAB digital radio with good sound quality, no frills and a sixties style this could be for you.

    Das Revival RD60 der britischen Firma "Roberts" im Design "Union Jack" sieht nicht nur klasse aus - es vereint moderne Technik, die rauschfrei Freude beim Radio-Hören - und Sehen - bringt. Das Retro-Radio ist seit vorgestern mein kleiner Begleiter, den ich wie einen kleinen handlichen Koffer am Tragegriff durch das Haus durch die Gegend trage - mal am Schreibtisch platziere, mal in der der Küche oder auf der Terrasse, im Garten....und mich damit am Sound und am Aussehen erfreue! Die Verarbeitung des Radios sieht hochwertig aus, die Herstellung in Handarbeit hat seinen Preis - doch das macht das Aussehen des Kult-Radios auf Zeit wieder wett...

    La estética de la radio, acabados, etc. son bastante buenos. Ahora bien, la calidad del sonido, sin ser mala, la encuentro deficiente. Eso sí, un punto nada a favor en lo relativo al idioma de las instrucciones del producto, pues no hay nada en español y hay que buscarse la vida en ese sentido.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Gutes stylisches Radio, Klangqualität unter Erwartung
    Reviewed in Germany on 19 April 2016
    Verified Purchase
    Auf der Suche nach einem "Kofferradioersatz" meines alten Derby Deluxe von Blaupunkt, habe ich nach schlechter, vor allem akustischer Erfahrung, mit dem Sony-Radio XDR-S60DBP das fast 3-fach teuere Radio von Roberts gekauft. Zunächst das Positive: Das Gerät sieht sehr stylisch und dabei etwas nostalgisch aus. Die Bedienung ist einfach und der Empfang sowohl über UKW als auch über DAB+ gut bis sehr gut. Die Verarbeitung wirkt solide. Warum nun der Sterneabzug? Auch hier ist die Klangqualität nur Mittelmaß. Zwar deutlich besser als beim Sony-Gerät, jedoch gibt es starke Defizite im Hochtonbereich. Der Klang ist angenehm aber verhältnismäßig dumpf ohne dabei basslastig zu sein. Hier wäre meines Erachtens wesentlich mehr möglich gewesen. Zwei weitere Punkte sind ebenfalls anzumerken. Schaltet man das Gerät ein, so dauert es fast 5 Sekunden ehe der erste Ton hörbar wird (verwirrt, hat man schon eingeschaltet?). Der zweite Punkt betrifft die Bedienungsanleitung. Hier war keine deutsche Anleitung beigefügt und ich musste erst in Großbritannien die Firma anschreiben die mir dann eine Version zum Download verfügbar machte. Das klappte aber innerhalb von 2 Tagen.

    Colour Name: Duck EggAmazon Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )Verified Purchase
    J'étais impatient de recevoir cette radio DAB car je n'avais jamais écouté la qualité de cette technologie numérique.

    Tout d'abord, l'emballage est beau et protège bien la radio. Celle-ci est sur-emballée par un film de polystyrène qui lui évite toute griffures sur le simili-cuir. On la prend en main, elle pèse bien son poids car son caisson est en bois. Le rendu extérieur est de bonne qualité, le cuir est bien collé et son look rétro attire l'œil!

    Cette radio est livré avec un adaptateur secteur 220v mais il est possible de la faire fonctionner avec 4 piles LR20, que je n'avais pas. D'ailleurs, pour accéder au compartiment pile, il suffit d'ouvrir la radio sur le côté. Là, par contre, c'est un peu limite car on a accès à toute l'électronique dedans la radio, avec ses fils et ses composants... J'aurais préféré avoir cette partie caché par un carter de protection. Il n'y a qu'un seul haut-parleur de 3W (il est indiqué 1W dans la notice) alors que c'est stipulé dans l'annonce Amazon qu'il y en a deux...
    Donc ne vous attendez pas à des basses et une puissance de fou.
    On découvre aussi une prise USB interne, au dessus du HP, mais qui ne sert qu'à faire d'éventuelles mises à jour logicielle.
    J'aurais préféré une connexion bluetooth par exemple pour ce prix.

    Bref, à part cela c'est du tout bon. On allume la radio, le tuner DAB recherche les stations automatiquement et il suffit de tourner le bouton rond de droite pour sélectionner sa station qui s'affiche sur un écran rétro-éclairé orange. Le son est tout de suite clair! Sans grésillement, limpide... vive le numérique! J'habite en Rhône-Alpes et je capte des radios suisse/alémanique! Je ne capte par contre pas toutes les stations habituelles de la bande FM, pour cela il me faut donc switcher sur la FM en appuyant sur une touche. Et là, on sent assez bien la différence de qualité sonore! On entend plus de souffle, des sons plus lourds, moins limpide qu'avec le DAB.

    Du coup, fini les stations FM, je reste sur le DAB!

    J'espère que mon commentaire vous a été utile dans votre décision d'achat!
