Revo Heritage is ‘lovely’ but ‘better value to be had elsewhere’
Revo Heritage
MacUser came “to love the Heritage” during their tests, but they found it hard to look past the wallet-busting price tag.
“Revo’s Heritage is a lovely modern version of the table top radio, but its price tag means that there is better value to be had elsewhere.”
The sound quality was praised, but they identified a couple of omissions – “the Heritage can only be powered from the mains – there’s no battery option – and there’s no onboard memory to buffer DAB or Internet radio streams, so you can’t pause or rewind them.”

Don’t think this is fair. Yeah,it’s £80 more than a Pure Evoke Flow, but with iPod connectivity, better audio, more expensive materials and a more attractive design (in my opinion). Throw in the Last.fm feature and I think the price difference is more than justified.
