PRESS RELEASE
PURE DIGITAL EVOKE-1XT MARSHALL
EDITION DAB DIGITAL RADIO
The Radio That Rocks!
London, UK, 3rd November 2006: PURE Digital – a division of Imagination Technologies (LSE:IMG) – presents the PURE EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition DAB digital radio, which combines the award winning quality of PURE’s EVOKE-1 XT radio with the legendary style of Marshall Amplification to deliver the ultimate in rock radio from Planet Rock. The radio will be premiered at the What Hi-Fi Sound and Vision show in London from November 3rd 2006.
The EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition is the product of three leading British companies: PURE, Marshall Amplification and Planet Rock. The EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition mixes the legendary style of the world’s leading guitar amplifiers, the classic content of the UK’s leading rock digital radio station, and PURE’s iconic EVOKE-1XT DAB radio.
EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition is wrapped in black vinyl, just like a Marshall amp, with solid wood construction, brass-effect control panel and a black metallic speaker grille. The fierce red on black display features adjustable brightness and of course the volume dial goes up to 11!
Trevor White, Executive Producer, Planet Rock says: “The EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition offers a great way of listening to Planet Rock, the UK’s classic rock station. This is a national digital radio station for people who want to break free from the daily grind – a spirit that the statement-making EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition captures brilliantly.”
Says Victoria Marshall, Managing Director of Marshall Amplification: “We’re excited to bring the Marshall brand to this fast growing segment of consumer electronics. Working with PURE we’ve created a DAB digital radio that brings iconic Marshall design to a product that all radio listeners can embrace as a stylish statement of their love for music.”
For max sound quality the EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition has an integrated full range hi-fi speaker and features a bass reflex port for enhanced bass performance alongside a custom designed 3" drive unit and active-filters to provide a natural ‘direct-from-the-studio’ sound.
The radio has both a countdown timer (ideal for counting down until it’s ‘time to rock!’) and a radio/tone alarm (an ideal way to wake up to Alice Cooper’s breakfast show on Planet Rock). A USB connector allows product updates to be loaded from the Internet so the radio can be kept up to date with any software changes. A headphone socket lets users rock out in private.
EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition can be upgraded to stereo with the optional XT-1 add-on matching speaker, which is designed to complement the EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition in every way.
EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition costs around £99.99 (inc. VAT) and is available from John Lewis, Richer Sounds and selected independent retailers.
EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition comes with a two-year warranty. The UK based support team can be reached on +44 (0)1923 277477, e-mail support@pure.com or visit the dedicated support area at http://www.pure.com.
EVOKE-1XT Marshall Edition is powered by the Frontier Chorus FS1010, which incorporates the revolutionary META multi-threaded processor and DAB technologies developed by Imagination Technologies.
