Superb little beatbox

When I lifted the package on arrival it was heavier than I had anticipated - a good start - as the weight conveys quality of the materials used, important in relation to speakers. I love that the Evoke Home comes in a dust cover - again important for speakers - such a small little detail but one that many manufacturers fail to deliver - well done Pure. Eager to get started I plonked the Evoke Home in the middle of the floor and switched it on to DAB. WOW - the sound that emits from this little box equates to have of and old-school sub-woofer - I was not expecting that! I changed to a few different stations - classical, pop, rock, and the depth of sound was really good in all channels. Next I went back to the quick start guide (as I am a complete techno-phobe) and I easily managed to set up the Evoke Home as my TV audio via Bluetooth - another 'well done' for Pure - the instructions are really clear. Again the sound was great although I had the volume up to 45+ on the speaker which equates to 15 approx. on the tv speaker. I immediately noticed that there is no sound delay on this product - it is 100% in sync with the TV - I have experience with previous products and you don't always get that - a great plus-plus point. Safety first, I moved the speaker to below the tv but I did hear quite a lot of feedback - as with other speakers location is important and I moved the speaker to a more appropriate place, further distance away from the tv I was connecting to. I will need to play around with the sound settings bass/treble etc as the default is not 100% to my preference, but that is to be expected.
The only slight negative I have is the size of the remote control and the colour of the numbers etc on the control. The size of the buttons are relatively small - my partner struggled with the buttons. I struggle with being able to see the text / numbers / functions on the remote control. The other tiny minus point I have is the selection panel on the top of the unit - I am already finding myself holding the back of the panel with one hand whilst I select a button from the panel - due to the design, I do wonder whether too much force used while not supporting the panel will break this and the panel will detach from the unit .. only time will tell. Overall, great little unit with all the functionality you need and a CD player to boot - good job Pure!
