The Q2 is solid and feels dibasic. Otherwise, it can be said:
Service:
That you have to rotate the device to wecheln the transmitter is still funny. That you have to tilt to adjust the volume, is not practical (you do not have good sense, from what angle, and then at what rate, the volume changes) - a simple knob would be much more manageable.
That one then to put on and-off must catch a small slide switch on the rear panel, is then already a KO criterion: as the unit is always rotated in different positions (to versttellen to the sender), you will find this on / off switch is always at a different position on the back - and because it is a slide switch, one must still try, in which direction it needs to be pushed now by the find. Impractical s not the point.
Software:
One can with a PC / Mac program select four channels from a (very large) set list and assign them to the four sides of the device. Our stations were all there (incl. A local university radio and byte.fm), but it did not work out partout, D-Radio or WDR-3 to receive (can be selected, but no sound).
Who works (like me) on Linux, the device only on a Windows emulation (VMWare, VirtualBox) can configure. This works quite well, except for one: the firmware update from Q2 so was not possible. So Linux users still have one more reason, better to buy another radio.
Sound:
The sound could not really convince likewise; both a iPdio Mini and the existing FM radio (Teac R1) sounded subjectively much more balanced and full.
Summary: In this appliance are neither hardware nor sophisticated software, and only the design is nice. Who (only) looking for a radio to view, should therefore access ...
