A while ago someone contacted me to ask why you don't see Hi-Fi component DAB (Digital Radio) Tuners. I think this video goes some way to explain why most HiFi manufacturers would think twice before uttering DAB and Hi-Fi in the same sentence.

It's a slightly odd video, half product review, half opinion piece. I’m not convinced both halves come together to make a cohesive whole, it's a bit talky, but it is what it is, they can't all be Oscar contenders.

Hope your week was good.

UPDATE 10th Feb 2019: As the commentary on the poor state of Digital Radio in the UK proved to be of more interest than the Ruark radio I spent Sunday revisiting this central section working on tidying it up, adding improved onscreen illustrations and recording a tighter voiceover. I also took the opportunity to trim the odd second here and there throughout the video. The version above is now the updated one. Thanks as always for your input.

Ruark R4 Hi-Fi & The woeful state of Digital Radio in the UK

A two-in-one video in which I buy the Ruark R4 Mk3, an expensive all-in-one HiFi to see if it's worth the price and in the process I lament about the current state of Digital Radio (DAB) in the UK. ---------------SUBSCRIBE------------------ http://www.youtube.com/user/Techmoan?sub_confirmation=1 -------------Merchandise----------------- https://teespring.com/stores/techmoan-merch -------------SUPPORT--------------- This channel can be supported through Patreon https://www.patreon.com/techmoan Patrons usually have early access to videos -------THANKS TO ------- Jerobeam Fenderson for the intro animation: http://oscilloscopemusic.com/ ----------Outro Music----------- Over Time - Vibe Tracks https://youtu.be/VSSswVZSgJw ------Outro Sound Effect------ ThatSFXGuy - https://youtu.be/5M3-ZV5-QDM ------AFFILIATED LINKS/ADVERTISING NOTICE------- All links are Affiliated where possible.
