Panasonic RF-D10EB-K Portable DAB+ /DAB/FM Radio - AC/DC with 10Cm Speaker For Clear Sound., Black

Quick delivery l ordered Friday 3rd July for a Monday delivery but turned up Sunday really good. Lovely looking solid radio easy to set up 106 dab channels loaded automatically, l pre set my three favourite channels and plugged in my 2.1 computer speakers into the 3.5 headphone socket and superb sound quality so it’s definitely stereo output from the headphone jack but also still sounds great on mono speaker built in, all set up in the summer house and looking forward to listening as many hours outside as l can, l have now moved my Robert’s dab into the kitchen as this panasonic is far better sounding. I would thoroughly recommend this Panasonic as it’s the best I’ve heard yet and l now have three dab radios, if you order one happy listening

Panasonic RF D10 DAB+ radio. Top quality Japanese audio brand. Good value. Features; large 100mm speaker driver for room filling sound (with vol set to 7 out of 12 SPL reached 70.4dB - tuned to KISS radio, neasured with Android dB app). Mains powered - standard C7 "figure 8" mains lead - with option to use x4 alkaline C batteries. All necessary features included: alarm, sleep timer, backlit LCD dot matrix display, 24 hour clock display, displays track info etc... 3.5mm stereo headphone output. 10 presets were very easy to set - just press button of empty preset whilst listening to DAB/FM station to save it! Only negatives (not for me) - no Bluetooth input, no internet radio, no NiMH battery charger mode, no colour options - black only, only one alarm. However, as I am using this as a bedroom radio I prefer that it focuses on the basics, and performs them brilliantly!!!!

Bought to replace an older battery-powered bathroom radio, which was sounding muffled to my wife and I, whose hearing has deteriorated with age. This RF-D10 radio is very much clearer and picks up the local weak DAB and FM signals well. The bathroom radio must be battery powered and it was good to read that this model should give about 40 hours use on DAB (early DAB radios were uneconomical to use with batteries). It requires four LR14/C size batteries: an unusual size nowadays, not as readily available as AA alkalines or rechargeables, and one must expect to pay about five pounds for a set of four. I have only been using the new radio for a few days, so cannot comment on battery life. Speech (news, discussions etc) is very clear and volume can be turned quite loud. In addition it is possible to set an 'equaliser' to adjust the tone, though the 5 settings 'Flat, Heavy, Soft, Clear, Vocal' did not seem to make much difference to me. I have tried to access a more detailed manual or specification online to understand what each is meant to do, but the UK Panasonic website is very poor and no detailed info seems accessible. There seems to be a 'sleep' setting available, to turn the radio off after a set time, but is awkward to set up, it only seems to work once-off, and does not seem to hold the setting from one session to the next. I don't think it can be used easily to prevent battery run-down should one forget to turn the radio off when leaving the room. I have tried to find out if it is possible to set this timer permanently but there is no help on the web-site. The UK Panasonic website is also clumsy to use: I tried to register for guarantee purposes but could not get registered for unknown reasons. A very poor website for customers wanting more detailed information than is in the simple sheet of instructions supplied. ** Added 3 weeks later: I still like this radio: enough volume for elderly people with hearing difficulties, and speech is good with equaliser set to 'clear'. However, it is very heavy on batteries when used in the bathroom, in spite of specification claim. I had to replace a set of four new Panasonic 'Pro Power' LR 14 alkaline 'C' batteries after only 18 days of occasional use. With retail costs of about 5 to 7 pounds for 4 batteries, this is going to be a considerable expense. This size of battery is becoming uncommon. Although rechargeable 'C' batteries are available from specialist suppliers, one hardly ever sees them in ordinary shops. I cannot understand Panasonic designing this good radio around an obsolete expensive battery. Rechargeable AA batteries are readily available, though their capacity (around 2500 mAh) is much less than an alkaline LR14 (around 8000 mAh). They can be reused for years if recharged correctly in an 'Intelligent' charger. They might not work well in the RF-D10 however, which stopped when the batteries dropped to 1.25V. Now that a wide range of rechargeable Li-ion batteries are available (eg for cameras, power tools, laptops) it would have been much more sensible for Panasonic to have designed the radio to use replaceable, rechargeable, Li-ion batteries, so that one could have a spare always charged up. As the spec claims it only uses 7 watts on mains power, I am thinking of using it in the bathroom connected to a 20W isolated shaver/toothbrush power outlet, instead of buying batteries every few weeks. ** Later comment: It can be run in a bathroom by plugging into a 230V shaver outlet, thus avoiding the expense of batteries. The radio draws a small current even when switched off (standby), so the isolation transformer in the shaver outlet gets slightly warm. Older outlets, rated only for shavers, might reach thermal cutout temperatures, so be sure that the outlet is rated for shaver and electric toothbrush recharging. I fitted a good one by MK: K0701, which gets slightly warm but nowhere near cutoff temperature. Even on high volume it does not seem to make the shaver outlet any warmer, and the radio works perfectly.

Great radio, c-cell batteries last ages for me, radio has good sound, great reception and is very easy to use, have bought three more for others, very pleased.

Absolutely cracking dab/dab+ radio, top brand . Very easy to tune. Fantastic sound, love it .

A quality product from Panasonic. Nice design, and very well put together. It autotuned on first switching on and found all of the expected stations. It comes with a proper mains lead (or, the transformer is inside rather than having a power supply that gets lost or fails) . Have not tried battery power but it runs on four C cells which will give good life compared to the AA that most use. The sound I found disappointing for the size. It has a 100mm speaker that is very clear at the top end but with very low frequency. I was expecting full range as specified, the expectation was not bass pumping, just appropriate for size. Passed it on to a family member who will use it for talk radio, not music stations.

Excellent little portable radio. I use it directly off the mains, so haven't needed to fit batteries. I like the large speaker which gives it a better sound than most portable radios. I also tend not to use the FM frequency so much, and mainly use DAB. I would say it's a well made, good quality, portable radio. It has 10 presets. Just what I wanted.

Overall I find this an old fashioned 'transistor' radio, in that it is portable with no dedicated speaker enclosure as such - just slatted vents at the back. Nothing wrong with that, but bass will be in short supply with a relatively open 4 inch speaker. However, the Panasonic's high quality doped pleated surround speaker appears to be mounted to a metal baffle which forms the front of the resultantly strengthened case; This has paid off in terms of reducing unwanted vibrations and gleaming nicely behind the grille in the right light . I find the sound very tight and musical up to quite loud volumes, with controlled upper bass audible beneath a sweetly detailed midrange and treble that isn't harsh unless you push too hard. Speech sounds nicely realistic to me too, though low resolution DAB leaves much to be desired, as does the whole format - poor clarity/hiss at very low volume for example seems common. Anyway, at £60 I expected a good quality radio, and that's what I received. I can listen for long periods at mid volume without fatigue. Moans include the buried backlight and equaliser menus (I find the 'heavy' bass & treble boost useful) and the lack of both backlight brightness control and rubber feet (sliding around whilst messing with menus annoys at first). It is interesting to compare the less portable Sony XDRS60, which costs about £20-£30 more and has a reflex speaker enclosure. (In short, The Sony is more bassy for music, but its midrange performance is lacking compared to that of the Panasonic's). Update: With the speaker now 'run in', I can confirm that this is indeed a fine sounding radio that is sonically better value than the Sony in my view, although the Sony is arguably easier to use and has better DAB clarity at very low volume (I have reviewed the Sony too).
