Not sure this is the right place to post this because this has multiple uses. This is an all in one box. The main features are described here:
I installed this today so these are my first impressions. It was easy to set up. I have connected it to my LG TV using the optical connection. And I have used a line in to connect my Echo. It has DAB and FM radio, music streaming for Spotify, Amazon Music, Tidal and others. Plus phono for a record deck. And bluetooth.And a CD player. I cannot think of much it cannot do. I bought this after I found that the new B&O Soundstage was not compatible with my TV.
So far, I have listened to FM radio. Asked Alexa to play music and radio. Watched some TV. Played a Star Wars movie on my DVD player. Played some Youtube music from TV. And all I can say is WOW. I have not adjusted any default settings. I don't claim to be an audiophile, I know what decent sound is. This has it in spades. At £999 this is not cheap. But if you are looking for a simple single box music set up I doubt you will find anything better than the R5.
After a few weeks, I'll post again. But for now, I am very happy.
