Chronos II
Stylish DAB & FM Clock Radio
Chronos II maintains the stylish design and aluminium facia that made the original so popular, but is now available in two colours, has an improved display, automatic light sensor and includes FM with RDS.
If you haven’t experienced DAB digital radio yet, you’re in for a treat.
Select stations by name, see news and track titles on the scrolling text display, tune at the touch of a button, and listen in crisp, clear, digital-quality sound. And there’s more listening choice on DAB too – in many areas up to twice as many stations as FM.
Of course, Chronos II still has plenty of bedside features, such as a large clock display, four independent alarms (each of which can be set for weekdays only, weekends only or as a one-off), a snooze timer and a sleep timer.
Other features include PURE’s Intellitext®, for browsing stored scrolling text, textSCAN™ to pause and control scrolling text and a USB port to add new features as they become available
