    Does such a thing exist ? After a quick google i found a denon hifi system witth the above at 500 quid but no need for a cd player.

    Its for a gift for my dad so must be reasonably simple to use without a billion menus although he has grasped his iphone really well ( still a nightmare with a windows pc though )

    Dab is the important feature , dont need audiophile equipment as currently he has a panasonic of somekind with a sub wooofer that is horrendous and gives me a headache.

    Was the denon ceol noir i saw and ive just read although its listed as dab its not true dab and is internet radio which stinks of lots of menus to me – although it did get 5 stars …

    might need to go actually visit a shop !

    Apple TV? Does he need dab if he can get radio stations through the wifi?

    Apple tv internet radio is a literal nightmare – i have apple tv and while good the radio feature is not even a livable workaround

    My experiance of all internet radio applications to date are they are clunky and crowded with shite radio.

    Dab radio is due to local radio back home having 3 or 4 dab stations vs 1 fm/am which is awful. Uses his little pure i got him for xmas a couple years back loads but says he wants to get a new dab unit for the living room as the pure doesnt go loud enough for the house without distorting. He has done a **** load of work for me at my new house while i was working in ukraine so would be nice to say thanks.

    We stayed in a holiday home that had one of these:

    Panasonic Bluetooth & DAB etc

    Worked great doing iphone audio over bluetooth.

    Zeppelin air?
    Should be able to stream DAB radio through the iPhone anyway (I think).

    Really not keen on streaming from iphone.

    If i have to id rather forego the airplay than not have a true dab
