    Advantages Advantages Additional stations not available on analogue, Reasonable price, Ease of install and use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Build quality, Supplied internal aerial is rubbish (externals are much better but at a cost)

    ##Updated 13/10/10 - see end of review## The Pure Highway is a Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) tuner that has been designed for use in a car. Installation is simple and needs no wiring into the vehicle dash as the Pure Highway "broadcasts" the received DAB channel over a low power FM transmitter so that it can be picked up by your own car stereo. In the box as well as the main Pure Highway unit is an in-car power adaptor (plugs into the cigarette lighter socket), windscreen aerial and flexible mount. More about the aerial in a minute. Why DAB? Okay why bother with DAB when you could make do ... more

    Advantages Advantages Small, light, good looks, great sound quality.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages hampered by DAB coverage. Bracket can cause unit to bounce if not installed correctly.

    I have had this item for over a year and feel I can now write a review on it. Taking it out of the box, I was impressed with the size, weight and shape of it. It's a good looking piece of kit and complements my Ford Focus nicely. It 'sticks' to its cradle by a magnet at the back but it is exceptionally strong and does not come off easily. On mounting in the car, it was very simple to set up although as I also have a satnav and chargers for phone, the inside of my car looks a bit like Mission Control! Nevertheless, the DAB takes pride of place. It takes a little adjusting to stop the unit from ... more

    Advantages Advantages DAB in your car - Perfect!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Involves a few unsightly wires inside the car. Can be difficult to operate while driving

    Having owned a DAB radio in the home for a few years prior to purchasing the Pure Highway I had become hooked on BBC 6music, the crystal clear quality of both talksport and Radio 5 along with some of the other DAB exclusive stations. As I'm not particularly a fan of any of the other BBC or local commercial stations morning or drive time shows my journeys to and from work were starting to get repetitive as I slowly worked through my CD collection from A-Z! When I first heard about the Pure Highway I was sceptical as although DAB has worked perfectly at my last three addresses I continue to hear ... more

    Advantages Advantages Improves radio quality, easy to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Wires can get in the way, another thing to remember

    Originally I am from London, but I have been living in Bournemouth now since 2001. I get home-sick every so often - you know being surrounded by the beach, grass and the sea makes me miss all the pollution ridden dirty grey concrete streets of home. Odd I know. One thing that keeps me going is that I can quite happily recieve my favourite London radio station, Absolute (previously Virgin) on MW - but it's not great quality I'll admit. So, when I first heard about these - it was actually through Absolute radio who were running competitions to win them, and after failing to win one myself, I ... more

    Advantages Advantages Cheap, easy to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Needs an external aerial to get full advantage (in my case anyway)

    I used to have a DAB radio in my old Vauxhall Vectra company car & when it came to replace it I went for a Toyota which doesn't have a DAB as standard (£1500 upgrade with sat-nav, rear camera etc) even though it has a DAB button so I went for a Pure Highway, as previously stated these take up more space on the windscreen with cables everywhere. I came up with the solution of fitting it into my centre console armrest, out of sight, open the cover to change channels, luckily my armrest has a 12V socket & a Aux in so I don't have to use the FM transmitter. Unfortunately the aerial cable was too ... more
