Pros and cons

According to our radio expert

  • Enjoy national and international radio via DAB+ and internet radio.
  • You can wirelessly stream music to the radio via Bluetooth.
  • The radio doesn't have a built-in CD player like the Imperial DABMAN i205CD.

Description

With the Imperial DABMAN i205, you get a modern radio with a classic appearance. Via DAB+, you can listen to digital radio. Since DAB+ is digital, you won't hear any white noise and you can receive more national channels. Do you want to listen to thousands of international channels? You can connect the radio to the home network. That way, you can receive channels from all over the world and closely follow all the international news. When you prefer to listen to your own music, you can wirelessly connect a smartphone or tablet to your radio via Bluetooth.

Sound quality is top, operation a drama

  • Sound quality is top
  • Presets cannot be programmed on the radio itself

There is no way to set the preset stations on the radio itself. When you do this according to the manual, so hold the preset button for 3 seconds, it will store random stations but not the station that is currently playing. That is then gone and you are again 10 minutes looking for the channel. Fortunately, I have discovered that the channels can be saved via the App. The device also hangs regularly so that no buttons work anymore. Turning it off/on is then the remedy. If the sound quality was not so good we would have sent it back immediately. We may have received a bad copy.
