The Revo Domino D3 is unremarkably proportioned and an unassuming looker, but where a rubbery feel is concerned it's a definite front-runner.
The same can't be said of the ergonomics. The little joystick is vague in operation, and the on-screen menus are small.
Still, feature-wise there's FM, DAB and internet radio reception, an iPod dock and access to Last.fm.
Plenty of vigour
It's a reasonably poised and quite energetic listen, with plenty of vigour up in the higher echelons of the frequency range.
There's better overall balance to some rival offerings, though – if not quite such a touchy-feely finish. Despite having a wealth of sound adjustment, the Revo does overstate low frequencies, to the detriment of the music.
