Vita Audio R1 DAB Digital Radio - from £159.00, free delivery
Vita Audio is totally about quality and with the R1 they are setting a new benchmark for sound and design.
Rather
than a confusing mass of controls they have conceived a stylish and
easy to use ‘RotoDial’ user interface making the R1 beautifully
simple to operate (This interface will be a feature and trademark on
all future Vita Audio products).
The cabinet for the R1 is manufactured from quality fibreboard (a material renowned for its excellent acoustic properties) clad in a choice of two real wood veneers (Cherry Wood and Rich Walnut) or two high gloss lacquers (Vita Grey and Vita Red).
Information relating to broadcasts and set-up is shown through a clear black on white LCD display. When in standby the display is softly lit so it can be easily read at night when used as a bedside alarm radio.
Their attention to detail is shown on the front panel where they have conveniently placed a headphone socket and an input socket so an MP3 player or any other audio device can be easily connected.
On the rear panel they’ve also provided a pair of high quality gold plated phono outputs so the R1 can be used as a DAB/FM tuner in an audio system.
Another unique feature is the R1’s power supply. Rather than the usual heavy and bulky linear type they specified a modern and compact switch mode for improved performance and a constant 12v DC supply with AC voltages ranging from 100-240v.
The beauty of R1 is not just skin deep. Beneath the surface they have carefully combined our long experience of loudspeaker design with state-of-the-art electronics. The result is a remarkable sound quality so whatever your choice of program material the R1 will bring a new level of involvement and enjoyment to your every day radio listening.
