TRS Intempo Portable DAB Radio

The Intempo TRS portable DAB radio is a retro looking design available in five different colours.

The Intempo TRS is both slim and lightweight making it a popular portable DAB radio with travelers. The light build and flimsy feel seems to be matched by the tinny sound though and the quality is not knock you off your seat brilliant that you get with say a Pure One but for the price, it’s good enough.

We also had problems with the volume control. While it goes exceptionally loud without any noticeable loss of sound quality, trying to get the volume low proved difficult. At its quitest setting it still seemed to be quite loud to us. This is caused by the click volume control rather than having a standard dial control.

One thing we did like was that the TRS Intempo uses the cheap AA sized batteries rather than the expensive C Cells. Put the cheap running costs with the low price tag and the TRS Intempo makes a decent budget entry level into the world of DAB portable radio.
