Colin , Bournemouth

Score 9.0/10

+ Great sound quality, Amazing Build Quality, Looks amazing, Great DAB Tuner

- Slight annoyance in that when you have the alarm set to Radio and you have say been listening to your iPod the night before and just hit off, the unit begins to just play the iPod at the selected alarm time as opposed to flicking to DAB Radio to wake you up. The same is true of the other modes so be careful if using the AUX the night before otherwise you will wake up (or not) to silence but is only a niggle and you train yourself to flick to DAB before switch off. Another niggle is the remote is fairly light and feels a bit flimsy but overall very functional

+ Sound, simple straightforward design, transportability. Fairly small footprint.

- Selecting pre-set stations 5-8 is a pain. More pre-sets would have been useful. Exposed woofer a little silly, an accident waiting to happen. Shiny finish is current vogue, but I prefer matt or textured. No explanation of purpose for usb socket. A battery option would have been excellent, but not until woofer is protected when carrying. Both battery and woofer criticisms are not too damning, it is after all, transportable, not portable.

Bristol, Nigel

Score 8.0/10

+ good sound system - easy to use

- not much good as alarm clock - the light disappears after a few seconds so you are unable to view the time. Don't buy if you want to use it as an alarm radio

Tictac, London

Score 1.0/10

+ Looks good, and on paper should be even better!

- Ordered 1, and there was no power at all. Gave them the benefit of the doubt and ordered another and this one had power, but the LCD display didn't work, and neither did the radio or ipod dock. Needless to say, i've given up now!

Paul, Hemel Hempstead

Score 9.0/10

+ Excellent design, sound quality and digital reception (compared to other digital radios I own) and good value for money

- It was bought to replace a radio/alarm clock and whilst it has an alarm function it is a shame for me that the Intempo RDI automatiacally switches tostand by mode whne not in use and does not continue to show thw time (there again many would probably regard this as a good feature).
