DAB radio
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) is the next generation of radio.
DAB was developed in Europe by a consortium of broadcasters and manufacturers.
DAB uses digital audio compression techniques to transform the source material, i.e. music and speech,
into digital code before it is transmitted. The code consists of electronic ‘ones and zeros’ called binary
digits or bits. The binary code is then multiplexed or grouped together to create a superior signal, when
compared with the older, analogue system, with the following key benefits:
• Near CD quality sound
• Interference free reception
• No need to retune
iPod Docking
Any iPod can be connected to the DAB radio to allow all your songs to be played through the DAB radio
speakers. Various adaptors are provided to allow all iPods to be connected.
