General
Don't let the looks of Sony's XDR-P1DBP DAB pocket-size radio fool you! It houses the very latest DAB+ technology so you can receive radio stations digitally, which is why DAB is considered the successor to FM. You can expect crystal-clear audio with minimal interference. Because digital stations use less data than analogue ones, you'll have access to more stations than ever before. If you prefer listening to FM, you can make use of the built-in telescopic antenna. This radio is lightweight and has a compact housing that's easy to take with you wherever you go.
Sony XDR-P1DBP: a modern way to listen to the radio
The XDR-P1DBP is equipped with a 4-inch speaker that delivers 1.5 watts of power. This gives it mono audio reproduction, but stereo is also possible by plugging a set of headphones into the mini jack input. Using the display on the front, you can see which station you're listening to. Operating this DAB+ radio is simple. It offers a selection button to switch between DAB and FM, an auto-tune function, and a control for browsing through the stations. Last but not least, this radio is powered by means of a built-in lithium-ion battery.
DAB+ technology
At this time, analogue FM is still the standard, but DAB+ technology is on the precipice of changing the radio landscape as we know it for good. Most (big) radio stations support this method of broadcasting already. Digital radio technology makes it possible to receive stations you could only hear via internet, for instance. Also, DAB+ includes more information about the station, which you can read on the display.

Le son est super pour une grande cuisine: Propre, des basses, puissant.
Mon cadeau a été immédiatement adopté par mes parents qui sont trop vieux pour savoir quoi acheter et perdus dans les boutons.
Ici, les boutons sont d' une simplicité enfantine.
Je suis ravie de mon choix
Eenmaal uitgepakt alles even uitproberen. De Sony is zeer bedienvriendelijk en logisch. Het moet gezegd worden de Sony produceert een Great Sound voor zo een kleine radio & de ontvangst is zowel met FM als met DAB+ heel goed. Je kunt met een hoofdtelefoon luisteren of een losse speaker aansluiten voor een nog beter geluid (wel mono). Mijn keuze zou de Cube van JBL zijn, daar deze met zijn 3 Watt imponeert.
Resumé een hele toffe zakradio die een grootse sound neerzet. Aanrader dus. Bax wederom bedankt & tot de volgende keer.
Groeten van Maurice.
Prima radio met een "voor dit formaat" prima geluidskwaliteit.
Wel vreemd dat de radio zonder "BIG SOUND, Built-in-Battery" sticker is geleverd.
(B-Stock?)
Voor het aansluiten op een externe versterker-speaker is het volume van de hoofdtelefoon uitgang wat aan de lage kant. (EU eis)
Are You Ready for DAB+ Digital Radio?
Tuesday 19 April 2016 By Julie AlexanderIn the near future, old-fashioned AM/FM radio will be replaced by digital radio, also known as DAB radio (Digital Audio Broadcast). DAB protocol has been in development since the '80s, and now it's making room for the more efficient and comprehensive DAB+. DAB+ utilises AAC audio instead of MPEG-2 audio. Because AAC audio deals with available bandwidth more efficiently, other media such as traffic information, program information and slide shows can also be transmitted via DAB+ protocol
