Imagination Technologies DMX-50 Factsheet

With a unique combination of style, power and advanced features,

include support for SD memory cards, bringing all the advantages
of compact digital storage to the micro system.

Pause and rewind live DAB digital radio with PURE’s ReVu

™

technology. Play your MP3 collection from SD card or MP3 CD.
Record tracks or complete radio programmes to SD card and
listen later on the DMX-50 or on an SD-compatible portable
player such as the PURE PocketDAB®2000.

All this technology hasn’t distracted us from the basics. Sound

per channel of class-leading audio through its rosewood-finish
speakers with custom-wound 5¼" woofers and 19mm Mylar­dome tweeters. And with a sleep timer, alarm and remote control
the DMX-50 is as at home in the bedroom as it is in the lounge.
