I admit that this made the cut purely on aesthetic grounds, I like Geneva products and this one is particularly nice. It’s a DAB/DAB+ and FM wireless that also has a Bluetooth receiver so you can stream net radio to it from your phone or computer. It has rotary tuning and volume knobs, a carry handle and a touch screen to aid navigation and provide a an alarm clock. Power is via a mains lead or rechargeable lithium battery which is a nice touch and you can have the WorldRadio in red, black or silver anodised finishes.
Amplification comes in digital form for the digital sources and analogue for the FM and sound is delivered by a three inch full range driver, so no pointless attempt at stereo. It’s also bigger than it looks at nearly a foot long (30cm).
