First of all I was looking for a good quality DAB alarm clock such as a Pure Chronos 2 as it had CD capability and weekday/weekend alarm presets.

Then, looking at them in the flesh today I saw a Sony giga juke 80gb that looks and sounds good but doesn't have alarm capability.
However, then I saw a Vita R4 but that doesn't have the cd-rip/hdd that the sony has. However, it has DAB and alarm clock functions along with a wicked little remote that detachs from the unit.

So, based on the above - what can you recommend as a (very expensive!!) alarm clock that meets all my requirements?

To recap:

DAB
CD rip to HDD
Alarm clock
Good sound quality

Price not really an issue but over £600 is silly. Or is there not anything on the market?

Also, what are your opinions of the Sony giga juke in case I just get a seperate alarm clock laugh
