The all-round clock radio - powerful sound and state-of-the-art features. The CR-ST55DAB is equipped with a DAB+ receiver and, thanks to the "ASA" function, provides a wide range of radio stations in the best quality as well as a real plus in terms of security. Its particularly large display with 5 dimming levels up to an extremely darkened "Super Low Light Mode" for the night, two adjustable alarm times and the snooze and sleep function make the CR-ST55DAB a fully equipped clock radio. With Bluetooth audio streaming, you can stream music wirelessly from smartphones and the like or alternatively play it via the USB port - the sound is impressively powerful and clear thanks to the DSP amplifier and stereo speakers.
The CR-ST55DAB is equipped with a DAB+ receiver whose "Automatic Safety Alert" ("ASA") function automatically interrupts the current programme or wakes the device from standby mode to reliably transmit important emergency announcements for the location previously defined by the user as soon as they are broadcast by a DAB+ transmitter.
