Product Information

We’d suggest upping your budget if that is the case, or if you don’t absolutely need a one-box solution, trump both with an all-in-one system such as Denon’s Award-winning D-M40DAB. The Pure all-in-one music systems combine digital radio, CD player and easy wireless connection to portable devices giving you a huge choice of listening. The space-saving designs with integrated speakers deliver ultra-clear class-leading audio and look beautiful with their clean styling and wood style finish. Our range-topping Evoke C-F6 also brings you the best of connected audio, with internet radio, Spotify Connect* and Bluetooth offering you an unparalleled choice of listening. Spotify Connect* gives you instant access to millions of songs on your Evoke C-F6, using the Spotify app on your mobile or tablet to directly connect and control your music wirelessly. Built-in Bluetooth lets you choose your favourite music and send it wirelessly direct from your mobile or tablet. These apps often allow you to connect to streaming services such as Spotify to play music through the radio’s speakers. We really appreciated how immersive it felt to use this radio and the fact that we could access Bluetooth streaming as well as DAB.

This particular radio system comes with an attractive real-wood casing, which is common throughout the Evoke portfolio. On the front of the device, you’ll see the iconic Pure logo, two sizable stereo speakers, tuning and volume knobs, along with a range of buttons for controlling your CD player and radio. Give your music extra bass, depth and clarity so you can finally hear what you've been missing. Powerful tuned stereo speakers combine with the wood casing and the advanced digital amplifier to deliver class-leading audio. Whatever you love to listen to, you’ll love it even more with Evoke C-F6.

If you just want a digital radio and aren’t interested in connecting it to the internet, an Evoke D2 or D4 is probably a better option. As with all Pure Evoke radios, you can except great sound quality. These apps usually aren’t updated as often as they could be, and users often face frustrating compatibility issues. The Pure Evoke C-D6 is one of the more expensive radios on the market at the moment, though it’s there are several more high-end models out there.

The system looks pleasant enough and offers plenty of functionality, similar to many other Pure products, like the Avalon or Siesta Rise. Autotuning: Once powered on, the radio will automatically search for the available stations. Wait for it to complete an autotune, after which a station will start playing. This affordable digital radio from budget audio brand AZATOM is one of the cheapest DAB radios with a remote control. Unlike the radios looked at so far, the Evoke F3 is an internet radio. This means you can connect to WiFi and listen to Spotify or the 20,000+ internet radio stations from across the world. You can also connect to your phone or other device via Bluetooth to use your radio as a wireless speaker. This radio’s screen can be dimmed to a very low level, which means you can have it in the bedroom without it lighting the whole room up at night. It also has an alarm function that lets you wake up to the CD player, radio or an alarm sound.A remote control is a very useful feature for a digital radio to have, as it means you can control the radio from wherever you are in the room. There’s also a sleep timer, and you can dim the display very low so it won’t keep you awake at night.

What’s more, the real-wood casing combined with the embedded digital amplifier in this product makes for a sound that makes you want to sit up and listen. You can almost feel the music move through you with a radio as powerful as this. Changing digital stations: You can change the radio’s digital stations using the remote or the front panel controls. For the remote, press the 🢨 or 🢩 button to browse through a list of the available stations and then press “Select” to choose a station. If you want to use the front panel control knob, turn the select dial right or left to scan through a list of the available stations. Push the button to change a station. This includes all the major UK stations as well as foreign stations, so it could be a good choice if you’re learning a foreign language or live in an area with poor FM and DAB radio reception. That said, we realized this radio has an easier and shorter setup process. It involves the following:If being able to stream music from a Bluetooth-enabled device like a smartphone or laptop is important to you, the Evoke D4 with Bluetooth is a good option. Otherwise you should go for the regular Evoke D4, which costs less. You’ll love the ultra-clear, easy to read 2.8" colour display that displays extra information and brings a splash of colour to your listening. This radio has a different shape to the D2; you could say it is landscape rather than portrait shaped. Like the Evoke D2, it comes in either a walnut or oak veneer casing, which helps give it a balanced and natural sound. Features If you’re looking for an all-round music system, the John Lewis Cello is a good choice. It has stereo sound and offers not just DAB radio but also a CD player and Bluetooth.
