DAB+, FM, Bluetooth
Currently out of stock

Product details

Radio reception via DAB and FM is excellent, and with the integrated DAB+, the new R1 can also be used in countries such as Australia and Germany where this updated format is now available.

The new R1 is an acoustic and visual enhancement for every bedroom. Thanks to the two adjustable wake-up times, you can wake up exactly when and how you wish. There is also a snooze function, allowing you to delay getting up a little longer.

Information on the program and settings is displayed in sharp detail on the ultra-modern OLED display. An advantage of the new display is its excellent readability from every angle. The brightness can be adjusted to suit individual preferences in both active and standby modes.

Most radios are made of plastic, but the housing of the R1 is handmade from wood materials. With years of experience in loudspeaker production, we know that the best sound quality can be achieved with wood. With a luxurious walnut veneer or a new soft lacquer finish in black or white, the material not only looks good but also feels warm and natural.

There is a headphone output and a switchable AUX input on the rear, allowing you to connect more devices and enjoy music with the rich sound of the R1. The R1 also features a USB charging socket for convenient charging of your smartphone.

The new R1 includes a high-quality Bluetooth receiver, enabling you to stream your music, Internet radio, or other services such as Spotify wirelessly. Most MP3 players, smartphones, and computers have built-in Bluetooth transmitters, and the new R1 delivers impressive sound quality via Bluetooth.
