Sangean WFT-1D

Fast signal acquisition, looks good

Can't pause/fast forward/rewind tracks, no optical audio out port

The Sangean WFT-1D DAB+ media streamer is stylish, and it can receive digital radio. You can also use it to listen to Internet radio and play shared media over a network. We were disappointed at the inability to pause or fast forward tracks, however.

Pretty much does it all ; Easy to set up and use ; Value for money

Small display ; Average remote handset

A bit of a jack-of-all-trades, this Sangean offers lots of different radio reception as well as excellent streaming capabilities. It's a pretty unique bit of full-width component kit too, at the moment, and given the feature count it represents...

Good feature set, very good performance.

Excessive lighting in standby mode. Disappointing front panel appearance. No remote batteries. Manual needs revising.
