The Model One Digital Generation 2 looks like a “normal” radio from the outside, with its cloth grille, antenna, and real-wood finish. Don’t be fooled, though. The Tivoli is a wifi radio at its core, with DAB+/FM in charge and Chromecast, AirPlay 2, and Bluetooth as useful passengers.
This little gem got five stars in all of our tests, including for build quality, features, and a clear, interesting sound, so we had no choice but to give it the What Hi-Fi? Award for the best DAB radio over £200. It’s about the size of a book (rather than, say, a bigger shoe box), it’s very nice, and it looks like it could have been on the cover of Livingetc.

Arylic’s Up2stream S10 is a small device that turned my regular speakers into a portable multiroom system. Setting up this radio was easy, and you could start streaming music from any device in your home right away. The streaming was stable and didn’t stop whether I was in the same room or 30 meters away. With the multiroom option, I was able to connect multiple Arylic devices and play music in sync all over my house.
All of it was easy to control with the smart 4stream app on my phone. It made me feel like a conductor, picking different songs for each room or playing the same song everywhere. It works with lossless sound formats, which means that all the details of my favorite songs come through very clearly.
