Do you need a dab hifi, or would a dab radio be fine. I have a spare Pure Evoke radio

Price.

[Scott23]

What price are you after for the evoke? Does it come with a main adaptor and a headphone socket?

Comes with mains adaptor and headphones socket. Boxed.

Just given it the once over and it's mint and been barely used. Still has the sticky labels on it

It's Classic FM branded (subtle)

Asking for £50 delivered.

LMK,

Was looking to pay around that for a mini hifi tbh as you can get philips mini hifis with dab for around £60 new. Any movement on the price possible?

[shyewei]

Price is negitioable Just based price on that well known auction site TBH.

It's quite heavy though and reckon postage will be about a tenner though so please bare that in mind

For a dab radio on it's own I would only be looking to pay around £25 ish tbh. LMK

[shyewei]

Sorry as you can imagine Scott, it's not worth selling at that price.

I paid over £100 for this a little while ago and whilst I appreciate prices have dropped this is still a cracking little bit of kit in mint condition!

What sort of compromise price would you go to?

[Hinchley Grinch]

I have a Philips MCB275 Micro Hi-fi, CD, DAB, USB + 3.5mm aux in. It's less than a year old so still has some warranty left. The user manual can be found here -

Cost me £140 or so. I have the original box, manuals etc. Will do for £70 delivered.

[Scott23]

The reviews seem to be mixed on this product, especially about the cd player. Does it pause between each track on a cd?

[Hinchley Grinch]

Not sure - I've never played a CD in it. I've only used it twice - it lives in our new kitchen extension looking pretty

I'll test it later and get back to you.

Would meet exactly in the middle at £37.50 delivered

Apologies, completely forgot about this. There is no delay or what I would consider excessive pause between tracks on a CD. Also, it doesn't say this in the manual but if you connect an ipod to the USB lead, the Philips remote will control track selection.
