For me, the IRS-820 should my previous device Muvid IR715-2 replace in future to receive DAB +.
Since the devices are similar in construction, the IR 715-2 from the quality is rather modest was my expectation not too high.
At the time of purchase the equipment was not yet available at Amazon and was therefore bought by a competitor.
A manual was not and was after about 2 weeks not yet available online.
At the moment it seems to be, however.
My device is connected to a Marantz SR4000 amplifier, should to receive Internet radio and DAB + and to
Play my MP3 music collection of USB serve.
Positives:
- Despite missing the manual was the start no problem
- Extensive features for the price
- Housing dimensions to fit standard HiFi components
- Multi-line display
- DAB + reception in the Munich area well (FM has not been used)
- Use of FB as well as on the device itself possible
- WiFi installed
- Output level matching
Negatives:
- Cheap plastic front, every keystroke conveys this feeling Billigheimer
- The biggest disappointment was navigating in the folder structure on your USB device
The folder and file names are truncated at 8 points, replacing the last 2 characters
So there are still actual 6 characters left. This makes a scroll and select IMPOSSIBLE!
A message to the VR-Radio support was unsuccessful.
If the music file then reproduced as the ID3 tag of the MP3 file will be displayed correctly.
The predecessor muvid 715-2 makes the appearance of the folder and file name properly!
- Antenna for DAB + and FM just as solid built wire antenna
- At the time of the sale beginning no manual available
Neutral:
- The Tonqualiät with DAB + and Internet is sometimes disappointing. But that depends primarily on the transmission quality / data rate with the
the radio station broadcast from stations in the Bavarian eg common space on DAB + with 80 kb / s is far below the
Opportunities and disappointed of course. The data rate used on the Internet is not great.
Conclusion:
I after 4 days returned the device because the device as opposed to my previous and music player
is not to be used and the service was contacted do not provide a view of a correction by FW prospect.
Unfortunately, I was disappointed despite my already low expectations.
