Tangent DAB-50 Tuner

We all know that DAB radio provides the best quality and that it is the future of radio but, the cost can be exorbitant: cue a trip to e-Bay, where I spotted this tuner at a ridiculously low price.
Although I started to build my hi-fi system almost forty years ago, I have long since stopped reading the geeky magazines and, I have to confess, that the name meant nothing to me but, as stated, the price was such that it seemed little risk.
When the package arrived, I was delighted at the quality construction of the unit even though, I suspected that the signal, which is far from strong in our area, would lead to a reduced service. It was simplicity itself, for even a Luddite such as myself, to set up and tune plugged it in to a cheap in door aerial that I had used for the replaced fm tuner.
I was amazed when I switched on the Tangent and heard a strong, clear sound emanating from my speakers. I can pick up stations which an expensive stand alone radio fails to find and the Tangent has a quality fm capability for those stations which have yet to emigrate. It comes with a remote which alleviates the problems caused by my poor placement of the hi-fi within my room and I would say, without fear of contradiction, that this has been my best purchase for many a moon: now, if you'll excuse me, there is a concert to which I am keen to listen.
