Pure's stand at last week's What Hifi/Stuff Show was literally bursting with shiny new gadgets. We took some snaps for ourselves, (see our AVR and GadgetCentre reports) but since then Pure has kindly sent us some more info on its three latest DAB powered table-toppers.

First is the quite beautiful Pure Legato II micro system. The Legato II incorporates a DAB/FM tuner, CD player (compatible with CD-R and CD-RW playback) plus 30W amp and features all of Pure's latest innovations; EPG, SD-card slot for recording, Intellitext and ReVu. It's out this month for around £350 - we're clearing a suitable space on the kitchen table as we speak...

The Pure Elan DX40 builds on the existing Elan and chucking in textSCAN (to pause and scroll DAB text), Intellitext (for news updates etc), RDS, USB upgradeability, and support for a rechargeable battery pack. Other features include 16 presets (DAB or FM), clock and sleep timers plus a tone or DAB/FM radio alarm. The Pure Elan DX40 is out now for £70.

Last but by no means least, is a DAB radio in the shape of a Marshall amp. That's right, British companies Pure Digital, Marshall Amplification and Planet Rock have done some headbanging (see what we did there? - no neither do we) and come up with the Evoke-1XT Marshall Edition DAB radio. The Evoke-1XT Marshall Edition takes the innards of a standard Evoke-1XT and gives it a rock makeover, with a black vinyl coating, brass-effect control panel and black metallic speaker grille. And of course the volume dial goes up to Spinal Tap 11. Available now, the Evoke-1XT Marshall Edition costs around £100.
