Pure Legato review

Advantages: Great radio reproduction and Revu feature, easy to use, good looks and small
Disadvantages: No tape deck/ AM radio

I bought this mini system in January 2005 for about £270 from 24/7 electricals. Although it arrived months later, I was very happy with it, especially it's FM and DAB functions. The unit is very good looking and looks good in just about any room.It is small measuring 21cm to the top of a speaker. It is also well built as it has stayed this way since I bought it. Although the initial installation process takes a little time (with connections, searching ...
...to navigate makes it very easy and simple. Overall, the Legato is easy to use despite its many features- all explained in the clear instructions. The most impressive of which being the ReVu capability which allows you to pause and rewind DAB radio. It can remember up to about 27 mins of radio which is enough for most situations. Another thing is the on screen display on both radio settings. When listening to the radio, messages including song names ...

Review of Pure Digital Legato

Pure DMX-50 - Practically perfect in everyway!

Advantages: Sleek design, ability to pause & rewind live radio, ability to connect MP3 player
Disadvantages: In my eyes none!

I got given this little beauty for my birthday last year and it's proved itself one of my best presents ever. It was incredibly easy to setup and although I always love a good read of the manual with a glass of wine I was fairly thankful that it did its own thing so I could listen to music right away. I love the look of this unit - the brushed silver looks sophisticated and smart and it's a good size, so fits nicely on my book shelf. The buttons ...
...is a lovely big size and shows all the important bit of info such as time, date, signal strength, station name, track listings to name but a few. You can listen to both digital DAB and FM radio, CDs, MP3 files from CD and on the nifty SD memory card feature and finally you can play in a range of different stereo equipment such as MP3 players, tape deck, DVD player etc through the line-in sockets at the back. There is also a USB connection for firmware ...

Review of Pure Digital DMX-50

Pure class, usability and functionality.

Advantages: Easy to read display. User friendly. Benificial innovative features.
Disadvantages: None.

The Pure Legato 2 is quite simply a revolation in innovation and functionality. Looking at it initially, it's like a wolf in sheeps clothing. It's size is small, yet it's output and definition to sound is of a magnitude which proves it's not the size of the speakers that count but the quality of them. This unit has many significant benificial aspects over many others. One of these is the fact that the display is a crystal blue with white text, which ...
...size. There is also a Pure sub-1 subwoofer available which compliments the system perfectly. It has a total output of 45 watts so putting the two together makes a sound thumpingly impressive 105 watts of power output. The system has an option to enable or disable the subwoofer via it's settings menu. I'll now describe each provision this unit has. This unit has both dab and fm frequencies and can store up to 99 presets in each band. Finding dab ...

Review of Pure Digital Legato II

Little Girls Stereo

Advantages: Size Easy to operate
Disadvantages: Only holds one CD

This small, little, itsy stereo (around 7 inches in height) was brought firstly because of it's size as it has to fit a small space, but secondly for a young girls bedroom so it had to be easy to use but then looking into more detail it had some very good advantages, it played copy cd's, as well as ordinary cd's it had a DAB radio and stereo radio FM/AM it had a remote control and all at a very competitve price for such a small stereo. The silver ...
...The stereo when switched on has a very nice funky blue screen that lights up when switched on. It is extremely easy to operate and the instruction booklet was also very simple to understand. It was easy to programme with the preset channel button on the remote control with channels of your own choice. The quality of the sound is very clear and good for 5W speakers. It does however only accept one disc for playing. All in all simple, stylish, easy ...

Review of Pure Digital DMX 20 DAB

Denon We Go, Becoming a DAB Hand In The Process

Advantages: All in one and very versatile. Good sound given a quality source
Disadvantages: Fiddly set-up. All menu driven, so a bit tricky to navigate too.

...being sworn at. The Denon S52DAB (described by Denon as a “Wireless Network CD Music System”) is an interesting proposal, looking not unlike one of those Bose All-In-One efforts that they are so coy about printing the full price of except in the small print of their ads. Yes, it’s a stereo system but with that unconvincing separation between its speakers that will leave a true hi-fi nut tut-tutting. However, for what it is; a glorified clock ...
...that both I and the Denon guy understood. I made a hard-wired Ethernet connection to the router, and set the ‘update firmware’ process going. Half an hour later, it was ready to run and try the wi-fi link again. Lo and behold, having set the Netgear router to precisely the same SSID and password as was set by the Apple Airport router, we were up and running listening to Californian stations, KRAP etc. I can only assume that the Apple router baulked ...
