Pure Digital Evoke 2 DAB Radio

Product Information

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. The 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. 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. The down points are its overall size and weight which are considerable for a portable radio. The DAB stations are very easy to tune but even so it would be nice to have more then six presets. The biggest problem for me is one of the reasons I bought the radio in the first place, battery life.

Pure Evoke-2S review | What Hi-Fi?

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. The power cuts out when using mains or batteries - it switches on and off a couple of times and then will not work at all - completely dead. There's also a dedicated input for an iPod or other MP3 player. The more eco-minded among you will also be pleased to learn it's part of Pure's EcoPlus range.

The Evoke Home is the most expensive model in the range.

You can turn the volume right up without distortion, the tone can easily be adjusted as each channel does perform a bit differently, the overall sound quality and style of the radio are superb! There is an optical output and you can attach an external aerial which is a great feature.

r u sure your not experiencing sound drop outs? I did for the first week or two have this problem. switch the osd to show the power level received. There's no doubt in our mind that adding the tweeters has improved the sound quality significantly. Single drive units are all very well (after all, some highly regarded speakers use that approach) but their dispersion is often relatively poor, making the sound particularly variable as one moves around the room. But quite frankly the audio on that, on D.A.B. sounded hollow and muffled . This set was returned right away.

Compared directly to the original Evoke 2, the new model is noticeably better in terms of clarity and coherence and especially speech intelligibility. Crucially, though, it remains unflappable even when pushed to maximum volume. Throw high-quality music files at it (from iPods etc) and the output remains composed right up to the output's limit, which we found impressive.
