Brilliant bit of kit
I love this thing.I have DAB radio in the car but not on my HiFi in my home-office and I've been missing the choice of radio stations on my old FM tuner. Bought this Fitzwilliam to go with an old amplifier and set of speakers I had.Its really easy to set up - I had it playing Internet Radio and looking for DAB stations about 5mins after getting it out of the box. The display panel on the front is bright and clear, and the text is big enough to read easily.FM and DAB reception in my room is not good with the telescopic antenna that comes included. It looks like the screw-type F connector so I should be able to unscrew it and change if for a better one.Connecting to my home WiFi was a breeze. Signal strength is OK but not brilliant compared to other devices in my home-office (laptop, mobile phone), but I don't think the WiFi antenna is changeable so I'm stuck with it. Its good enough for the audio to be clear, just not showing on the display as a strong signal.I like that its got its own volume control because the old amplifier I've connected it to doesn't have a remote control, but the Fitzwilliam does so I can adjust the volume or mute when I have to take a phonecall etc without moving from my desk.Bluetooth is also easy to connect and works like a charm. Same with MP3's on a USB stick.Its got Spotify built in but I haven't played with that yet.All in all I'm very impressed!

First class DAB+ / Internet Radio unit
If you're looking for a radio that gets you access to thousands of stations all over the world this is the one to buy!As well as DAB+ and FM you have Internet Radio, podcasts, Bluetooth and Spotify. All you need is to connect to an amplifier, existing hi-fi system or active speakers (which I have).By changing the antenna to an extendable, magnetic one I was able to pull in DAB+ stations that I couldn't before!Very easy to set up and use with a handy instruction booklet you will be able to listen to radio from around the world. And it comes with a remote control.This unit is well worth the money as long as you have an amplifier/hi-fi with Aux input or active speakers.

Very Good But Not Perfect
I was an early adopter of DAB radio with three DAB radios including a nice hi-fi model hooked up to my stereo system. Then of course DAB+ slowly took over and the stations that I listened to started to move over to DAB+ leaving me with very little station choice. The roof aerial for my hi-fi FM radio started to fall apart leaving me with a problem there as well. That's where this little beauty came in and at a very reasonable price.It's very good but not perfect hence the four star review. It's very easy to install and looks good. It has more features than I will probably need so there's no problem there. The internet radio works perfectly and gives a very good sound. The aerial doesn't work very well where I am due to my location. I think that it would have been a good idea to have a socket for an external aerial and it seems a bit mean to not include it as everything else seems to have been thought of.After a few weeks of trying the DAB+ stations and having mixed results I decided to strip some of my roof aerial cable to the bare wire and wrap that around the built in aerial. I then wrapped some tape around the wire to keep a good contact and keep it from making contact with anything else. This has worked perfectly and I can now get full enjoyment out of the DAB function. Please be careful if you try this method.The remote works fine but I do have to stand right in front of the unit to make it respond. I've found that EQ settings don't make much difference so I don't bother with that function. If you do use the EQ settings I had to reset it after every change of function which was a bit annoying.Having said all of that I am pleased with the overall performance and I consider it good value for money.

Truly great value for money
I have been using a Reveo Superconnect for Spotify, DAB and internet radio connected to my hi-fi for years.I spotted this device whilst surfing Amazon and it immediately caught my attention. Mine is the black model and it looked as though it would match nicely with other components in my setup.For the price, I decided to give it a go and ordered one. It looks far more impressive than the price might lead you to believe as other reviewers have noted.It was easy to setup and the sound quality is just as good as I had experienced from the far more expensive Revo Superconnect.DAB being mostly in mono, and low bit rate, sounded exactly as expected, switching to FM immediately brought high quality sound, as good as my Sony S570ES tuner.Spotify was equally impressive, as was the internet radio. I haven't tried blue tooth as I don't have a device I want to connect to it in this way.Yes, the device is made to a price, it's very light weight and uses an external wall wart SMPS. As others have noted, the scrolling rate on the display is slow and the yellow, rather basic, clock that you can have on permanently doesn't do it any favours. I've simply set mine for the display to go off a few minutes after switching off.The quality of the album art displayed on it's screen when using Spotify is actually really good, if you press the ok button on the remote, it will fill the whole screen with that image.The instructions booklet is adequate and I had no difficulty adjusting anything after reading them.There are two small antennas supplied to attach to the SMA connectors on the rear for WiFi and blue tooth, one of these broke whilst screwing it on but fortunately I have a number of small SMA antennas from other devices I own.The main FM / DAB antenna is a telescopic one that comes already screwed in place. I would have liked to see separate antenna inputs for FM and DAB as I have both kinds of aerial on the chimney of my house.Removing the screw on telescopic antenna to attach the cable for the external aerial proved very tricky, I had to remove the case of the Fitzwilliam to do this as I needed to use pliers to hold the inner retaining nut whilst loosening the external one.It was worth doing and signal strength for both DAB and FM was at maximum using the external DAB aerial.For the money the Fitzwilliam costs, I'm more than happy for the fiddling that was required to sort the antenna socket out.All other components in my hi-fi setup are high quality, expensive, the Fitzwilliam looks both aesthetically pleasing and does an excellent job for it's diminutive price tag.
