Portable radios are fine and dandy, but if you've got a traditional hi-fi system, you'll want a dedicated DAB separates unit to complete the package. In terms of looks, the TU-1800DAB certainly fits the bill.

And, once up and running, it's immediately apparent you're listening to something really special.
Tunes from stations such as Radio 1 and Classic FM are delivered with fantastic fluidity, rhythm-driven drive and expressive dynamics. Voices on Radio4 sound clear, natural and refined.The TU-1800DAB marks a highly successful transition for Denon from its high-quality analogue tuners to the realm of digital radio.
