1. An audio apparatus comprising:
a display device;
a tuner configured to receive a frequency signal;
a first amplifier configured to amplify the frequency signal received by the tuner;
a detector configured to demodulate the frequency signal amplified by the first amplifier and output a signal in an audible frequency range;
a second amplifier configured to amplify the signal in the audible frequency range output from the detector and transmit the amplified signal to a speaker; and
a processor configured to identify broadcasting information corresponding to the frequency signal received through the tuner and control the display device to display the identified broadcasting information,
wherein the broadcasting information includes one or more of a program name, a broadcaster, a broadcasting time, and a broadcasting station name,
wherein in response to reservation command and reservation information received through the input device, the processor identifies broadcasting information matching the reservation information among broadcasting information of a schedule based on the schedule and the reservation information, stores the identified broadcasting information as reserved broadcasting information, and controls output of a radio broadcast based on the reserved broadcasting information,
wherein the processor is further configured to identify a first area corresponding to a current location, identify a second area corresponding to a location at a scheduled broadcast time based on current time information, current location information, and route information to a destination, and, when the first area and the second area are different from each other, change the reserved broadcasting information to broadcasting information corresponding to the second area.
