“Bush DABCR2003 - Bought this because I've been very...”

written by Consumer on 14/09/2004

Good Points
Cheap.

Bad Points
Transformer hum and case vibration, even with radio off, are loud enough to keep me awake. No separate pre-set buttons - have to scroll through pre-sets.

General Comments
Bush DABCR2003 - Bought this because I've been very impressed with my Teac DAB radio and wanted to be able to listen to DAB stations on a clock radio.



It was a waste of money. Transformer hum is loud. It actually makes the rather flimsy case vibrate and the front transparent panel vibrates against the case and buzzes. I had to unplug it to get to sleep. The answer to this would be an off-board transformer on the plug, but it's not available.



There is a pre-set button allowing storage of 10 stations, but you have to scroll through the channels to get to them. There are no separate pre-set buttons as such. You can't really use it with your eyes closed, contacts out, specs off, etc.



Reception isn't brilliant but is acceptable. Sound quality is much worse than the Teac. It sounds like a £15 clock radio.



All in all, it's not a good choice for a clock radio and I am going to swap it for a Pure Tempus.
