I have very quickly become a fan of Majority products. This tuner is really good value & outshines many more established brands costing double or more. The tuner offers all the options you’d expect including acting as a Bluetooth module for playing audio through your hi fi speakers. Spotify connect is easy to set up & use in a way which improves on the usual Bluetooth speaker option. Internet radio is just a fantastic world of stations to suit every need. I removed the telescopic Ariel easily & connected to my home external dab Ariel – Ethernet cable direct into my router & straight set up. The wi fi options also work well. Love this product & will likely buy more Majority products in future

Absolutely love this, very user friendly both with on board settings and remote control and sound quality though I plug it in to my hifi from an optical connection. Sound quality will depend on your speakers and hifi equipment but am over the moon with this. Even the Dab quality is great there are no interferences you used to get on Dab and I’ve had it on for hours now. Good clear sound with good thumping bass. Even the internet radio stations sounds good too but this will depend on the file system they use for broadcasting and I notice most are still using 128 kbps but it still sounds good am very pleased. Saving stations is a gem just hold down fave on remote and its saved. Spotify was easy to setup using my phone but would have loved Amazon HD built in as well and You tube as most people use these. You can get round this by using a smart phone with the app for the music service you use everything is in the instructions and its easy to do. To speed up the station search you can go on their web site and type in your fave station, find it, save it and the tuner will store it if your on the same network. I just can’t fault this at all. If your a radio person like me you will be spoilt for choice there is every station you can think of here all around the world. You can search by station or genre etc cutting out a lot of time. Nice to have phono out too for connecting a cassette deck for recording stuff. Well done to the manufacturers on a great job with this, oh and their after sales service is very good too as I found out. Hope you found my review helpful in your decision to buy or not but am sure you will be happy but if there is any question I am happy to answer them if I can. Please leave me a like if its been helpful, thanks.

I have to admit i was somewhat concerned about buying this; why so cheap? Who are Majority? do I believe some of the less favourable reviews? Still, only one way to find out and it appears i made the correct decision. The unit is a nice HiFi match and within a few minutes i’d got it set up on Wired Lan, RCA to Cambridge Amplifier, but only the supplied DAB/FM aerial (I intend to wire it in to our external at some point). Connection to our home media player was easy as was DAB and Blue tooth to my phone. FM radio was a bit of a pain but i saved pre-sets for all stations i’d need. I’ve not tried internet radio yet, nor have I set an alarm (and doubt i ever will). Spotify is only available to premium customers but I can play spotify on my phone via the blue tooth connection. the suggested UNDOK Frontier app on my android phone works nicely, arguably it’s more intuitive than the remote control!
I was originally thinking about ditching my amp and replacing it with a media receiver. This would have been a far more expensive option and no improvement on what i now have as far as functionality I expect to use goes.
*** Update *** external aerial… As other posts have suggested, it’s a complete pig to remove the supplied aerial! However an 11mm box spanner does the trick as it slides over the whole aerial fitting. The fitting is an F type connector and i got an F type to uhf converter. The advantage of this is that it threads into the socket (box spanner out again) without a cable attached and the cable is then fitted via a push UHF connector. It works nicely with my ancient ring aerial on our lelly pole!
