Internet Radio CD Player and DAB+ | Bluetooth, Spotify Connect, Podcasts | FM Radio, Dual Alarm, 80 Presets | Custom EQ Settings | Full Colour LED Display & Remote Control | MAJORITY Homerton (Oak)

Incredible. Easy to get up and running, to connect, wonderful sound and compact, versatile and brilliant.

Great unit to replace an ageing Roberts system. Great to have Internet radio and an Aux in (vital) Great sound and easily set to own preference with a (basic) EQ set up. Amazingly good sound from such a small unit. Very easy to set up and link to my router. Wonderfully compact on my kitchen surface, (leaving plenty of room room for the microwave, toaster, Echo etc etc)

First Impressions Well packaged and secure. No manual with a QR code to directly link to an online manual which can be downloaded as a pdf (you have to look for the link though). What’s in the Box? Homerton 2, Remote, Batteries and Power Pack/Cable Initial Look & Feel Looks to be a premium unit with really nice contrasting colourways. I chose the black option which looks fab. The markings on the unit are difficult to see in bright light - maybe contrasting colour would help here. It’s a solid unit with some weight to it. The remote has all the buttons you will need to operate all functions easily. Setting Up Easy to read on screen instructions guide you through the process of set-up: the online manual is an easy read with plenty of detail to ease you through the various connections. Simply search for your local Wifi network and connect via your Local Password or WPS. Once connected to Wifi the unit really does come alive with all the bells and whistles available to connect to your favourite online music sources. I chose to try out a CD first. I have loads I have not played for some time and it was great to have this function available. How many of us have CDs that are sitting in boxes?! The DAB+ function was easy to set up with all the various Regional and Genre access you benefit from when using digital radio. There is so much content available you will never run out of things to listen to. The Internet Radio function adds to the DAB world and I chose to search for a number of obscure radio stations to see if I could connect. Yes, easy enough to connect to St Lucia & Florida based radio. This is a great function and brings the world of radio to your listening. The only negative I found (a very minor point) was during CD playback. There is no embedded data to display. Maybe an over the air update in the future? As a positive, Podcasts were really easy to access - there are so many available now via DAB+ you could easily lose yourself for hours, days, weeks and months. Bluetooth Connection Simply turn your BT device on (mobile phone in my case) and add the Homerton 2. Once done you can use the Homerton 2 to play your digital music. The supplied remote can be used to pause and/or select next/previous track. Easy! Two negatives exist for me here; You can’t connect the Homerton 2 to an external Bluetooth enabled sound system eg my Majority Ben Sound Bar and Sub Woofer. However, you can use the headphone connection to facilitate this if your unit is close enough to make this happen. Nor does what you are playing via Bluetooth show on the Homerton 2 home screen - minor point but useful never-the-less if you like to see your media source and what's playing. One real benefit is the ability to use the Undok App as your remote. This is an app you can download to your phone and then control the Homerton 2 via your phone - a really nice touch! USB I tried to use a 64GB USB memory stick, containing a wide range of my favourite MP3 files I use in the car. The Homerton 2 home screen simply said ‘loading…’. Maybe it was the size of my memory stick but I was unable to play any of the MP3s on this stick. This has been reported to Majority tech support – a friendly lot. Sound From such a compact unit the sound is pretty good. There is a small ‘Bass Out Tube’ at the rear which obviously adds something to the sound quality. There is no vibration, even at higher volumes. There is an in-built equaliser where you can select a number of sound options and you can adjust bass and treble. Final Comments This is a decent unit that covers all the media bases well. Small and compact to situate in the Kitchen, Bedroom, in a Living Space or as a decent multi-media capable music base situated in your Living Room. The Homerton 2 is easy to set up, has a really easy to use remote (or you can control the unit via the Undok App) and it’s a unit which produces a decent level of good quality sound for you to enjoy music or spoken word media. The DAB+ and Internet Radio are a real bonus (there is so much to access in these formats from all over the world) and the CD player is an oft relegated benefit that seems to have disappeared from comparable units. Most of us have a lifetime investment in CD’s that we have not listened to for ages – great to revisit these with the Homerton 2. The Clock Face when the system is ‘off’ is a nice looking thing and from the clock function you have access to a couple of alarms. And, finally, the home screen is dimmable. For the price, I paid £139.95 from Amazon, this unit is a little gem that will get lots of use.

Wonderful piece of kit. We brought this so we could listen to some of our CD's that aren't available via Amazon music. Delighted both with the sound quality and also the overall build quality. The unit looks good on our sideboard, and is very easy to use. The manuafacturer also supplies a free 3 year guarantee on their product. What more can you say?

Excellent bit of kit for the money- really easy to set up (added my son's Spotify and linked to the internet in minutes. Great sound quality and solid build. Has many features too and nice design. Highly recommended

mrkevinhiggs 22 May 2022, 18:25 BST I ordered the Homerton 2 as an upgrade to standard DAB radio. I was looking for something to fit in with my office, not take up too much room but able to listen to DAB, Spotify or other music from my Bluetooth devices, and CDs if I fancied. The Homerton 2 does all of this along with being able to listen to hundreds of other internet radio stations. With a built in speaker too I didn't even need to wire in my Majority D40 speakers unless I really wanted to. The sound from the Homerton 2 is loud enough to fill my office as much as i need it to, and with built in equaliser it is so easy to adjust the sound depending on what I'm listening to. I probably will plug the D40 speakers in as their sound profile is fab, and as the Homerton 2 has a headphone jack this is a simple addition to an already brilliant product. For the price I am blown away, it also looks and feels really well made. The other really good thing is that Majority are looking to become more climate friendly so the packaging is pretty much all recyclable and the weight of the product is kept for shipping by not including things you don't need. There is no instruction manual in the box which might upset some people but the Homerton 2 is so easy to set up I didn't even need to review the online instructions in order to get the device connected and music playing. I haven't tried the CD player yet but there are the usual controls for pause, play, back, forward on the included remote, so I'm sure this will also work a dream. I honestly don't know how Majority do it for such a low price, and such a brilliant product. Well done! 👍

Radio Internet / CD de très bonne qualité, facile à configurer Radio Internet, lecteur CD, Bluetooth, prise USB (dommage qu'elle ne soit pas en façade), FM, DAB (pas encore accessible dans ma région) ... Très bien Satisfait de mon achat
