Auto tuning is fast and accurate and the sound is excellent... Total DVD, December 2002
If you appreciate the advantages of digital formats like DVD and CD, it makes sense to get into digital radio, but DAB has been slow to take off, mainly because of the outrageous price of receivers. VideoLogic, pioneer of affordable DAB with the DRX-601E, has now broken the £100 barrier, and introduced the first DAB portable.
The PURE EVOKE-1 is surprisingly small, about the size of two VHS boxes stacked together. It has a stylish wooden case, a single built-in 3in speaker, and an output for an optional second speaker for stereo, a telescopic aerial that can be replaced with a wire aerial, outputs for headphones a hi-fi connection and an external mains adaptor. The 32-character backlit LCD panel shows information including station, tuning and programme details. Auto tuning is fast and accurate and the sound is excellent... DAB stations include all the major national and London channels, plus specialists.
