Around 250 million people listen to the radio on the Internet all over the world. For good reason, because the choice is unlimited: Several thousand broadcasting stations provide their programmes on the World Wide Web. Whatever your taste in music, or whatever your mood or interests - there is sure to be a station that suits you. The only disadvantage so far: without a computer the listener is not able to access the wonderful range on offer. And you quite often want to listen to the radio exactly where your PC is not - in the bath, in the kitchen or in the garden. Grundig has seen the problem and is now offering even more freedom with a range of Internet radios. The models will be launched onto the market during the course of the year.
Grundig Ovation internet radio
The product line's top model is the Ovation Internet, a design hi-fi system which has also made access to all the choice of audio on the Internet much easier. This system was built on the great success of the Ovation 2. The WLAN connection and audio streaming ensure the compact hi-fi system with the Grundig Magic fidelity sound system and any music saved on your PC, as well as over 10,000 radio stations broadcasting on the Internet all over the world can be accessed.
Grundig portable internet radios - WLAN network
The only condition is that you have a WLAN network at home so that a con¬nection can be made to the Internet and the untold number of radio stations, even if the computer is not actually up and running. If you want to play music saved on your PC on the hi-fi, the Ovation 2i works like a UPnP client which accesses files in a directory made available for this purpose. The track is very simply provided using programs such as Nero Media Home, Windows Connect or the new Windows Media Player 11. These programs turn the PC into a UPnP server which recognises the clients in the network and allows them to access the songs. Once you have set up the connection with just a few clicks of the mouse, all you need to do is select the PC as your sound source, choose your favourite song and enjoy it - the Ovation Internet's phenomenal sound concept gives you a sound which is far superior and more intense than through a PC loudspeaker. The Ovation internet radio will be available from August 2007 and will be priced at € 599.
Web Boy 60 portable internet radio
The Web Boy 60 portable internet radio is just as versatile as the Ovation Internet with its extreme flexibility. It is small, handy and the high-quality aluminium housing looks really smart - typical for Grundig. The Web Boy 60 internet radio blends in to any modern living space and has no similarity whatsoever to your grandfather's old type of radio. The design appeals directly to young people who are also familiar with the Internet and MP3 players. The Web Boy 60 will be available from October 2007 and will be prices at € 249.
Grundig Sonoclock 890 WEB - Kitchen radio
Cooking is in. And not just because there are round about 103 cooking programmes on the TV. Grundig has recognised the trend and done something for the in¬creasing number of ambitious hobby cooks and gourmets. The Sonoclock 890 WEB kitchen radio gives you everything you need for snipping, sizzling and sauteing: easy tuning, a clear playlist, perfect sound and a great design. Because it is clear: those of you who are fed up with convenience food and soup, do not want just any old transistor radio standing in their high-class kitchen. It has got to be a Grundig. The Grundig Sonoclock 890 WEB radio will be available from November 2007 and will be prices at € 229.
Grundig UMS 5810 WEB radio
The mass appeal of this micro hi-fi is huge. It is not at all surprising, because sometimes less is more. They have almost the same sound as larger systems but do not dominate the room so much and blend harmoniously into the am¬bience of the home. That is why Grundig has also developed a really special range for this target group - with all the characteristics the Grundig customer is entitled to expect. The Grundig UMS 5810 WEB micro hi-fi has a rich sound which even surprised some specialists in a test, it is functional, light, easy to operate and it is a real eye-catcher. Small yet still very large. The Grundig UMS 5810 WEB radio will be available from March 2008 and will be prices at € 299.
RRCD 3760 WEB internet CD radio recorder
What do you do when your children complain that mum and dad listen to their favourite programmes the whole day long and never want to let them use the Grundig Internet radio? No problem. Now Grundig has the RRCD 3760 WEB Internet CD radio recorder in a ghetto-blaster design perfect for this target group. Both loudspeakers ensure that the bass is huge and the treble does not sound tinny. In fact, it is only logical that we equipped the Grundig Internet radio recorder with a socket for headphones. We do not want to disturb a peaceful home. The Grundig RRCD 3760 WEB internet CD radio recorder will be available from March 2008 and will be pricet at € 249.
