Pure Digital Evoke 2 DAB Radio

Product Information

This is the latest incarnation of Pure's bigger, stereo table-top radio, and frankly, it's a beauty. But quite frankly the audio on that, on D.A.B. sounded hollow and muffled . This set was returned right away. I decided it would be a wise investment to buy some rechargeable batteries and on a full charge they will last between 8 and 10 hours. The Evoke 2S's improved sound quality is down to more than just the new tweeters, however. Pure's Clearsound suffix describes its digital end-to-end audio subsystem, which uses high-quality class D amplifiers and digital audio shaping technology to provide clear dynamics with low power consumption to suit the times.

I also like the Evoke 2 because it is mains and battery powered so I can easily move it around the house without moving lots of wires with it.When it said "we recommend" only alkaline I thought that that was because non-alk batteries wouldn't last as long - not that they'd kill the radio. weird. The Pure Evoke Home comes with a flip-up screen. (Image credit: TechRadar) Pure Evoke Home: price and release date This Radio is superb! the Roberts doesn't come near it, I'm quite sad about that as I have always liked their analogue sets. The Pure Evoke 2 was the first of three DAB radios I bought (one for home, one for the car and one for personal use). I bought if specifically to plug into my Hi Fi amp and use it as a tuner. It has ‘ReVu' – so you can pause and rewind live radio, as well as useful alarm and sleep timer functions.

I use it in the kitchen and have a good olde boogy when cooking a roast for the misses n kids, never liked cooking but now its more fun!!!

The radio looks a little old fashioned, but is nicely made. I know you may think this is not important, but not all F.M. stations broadcast on D.A.B. so I feel the F.M. performance should be better!. In this case, there is quite good treble in most directions and speech intelligibility is definitely better than we found with earlier Evoke models. There's also some good life and verve in music. I also like the fact that there is a headphone output on the radio so that I can listen with these at night. weird ****. it did this again with a new radio but we switched it off before it blew, put duracells in and it seemed to work with no problems.

Although it does include a CD player, the Evoke Home is mostly about streaming. No surprises there, but the way it executes it all is sometimes underwhelming. Its pop-up screen hosts shortcuts to a bunch of apps; DAB Radio, FM Radio, Internet Radio, Spotify, Podcasts, Bluetooth, CD and AUX. Four of those require the Evoke Home to be attached to a Wi-Fi network. I found it did this when it was stormy and very overcast, the level would drop below 50 even down to 20 odd on occassions. Since then its never happened, levels now always above 90% (they may have boostered it a bit) and we now have more channels. I live in the stix. I like the fact that it has 6 presets for both DAB and FM so I can store my favourite stations on it. The Evoke Home has a quoted 100W of power from its dual 20mm soft dome tweeters and two 3.5-inch woofers, which are situated at either end of the chassis. Applicable models: Chronos 2, Contour 100Di, Elan 2, Evoke 1S, Evoke 2S, Highway, One Classic, One Classic Series 2, One Elite, One Elite Series 2, One Mi, One Mi Series 2, Siesta, Siesta Mi, Siesta Mi Series 2The only problem with the Pure Evoke 2 is that the batteries don't last too long. It would be more wise to either buy Rechargeable Batteries or just use the mains. The Evoke 2 uses 6 C Size Batteries.
