Hi lads
unfortunately my go to music channel RTE Gold Radio is being discontinued and so looks like my 3 DAB radios will be redundant, It plays music 80,s to 2000,s very little speech interuption, and i dont have to search for music.

I wish to know can you recommend any equipment which will help so as i can find an alternative, have good broadband in area please

Hi Stoves1,

You would probably be best with an internet radio which can pick up a broad range of stations in different genres.

If you are looking for an all in one unit I would recommend something like the Revo Supersystem which is a fantastic Internet and DAB radio:

You would get a better sound out of something like a Marantz MCR612 which would have Internet/DAB radio, CD player, USB/digital inputs and Bluetooth. This paired with a good set of speaker would be a much better sounding system and you'd have a good few more features than a standalone radio unit however it it s bit more expensive:

Let me know what you think!

Kind regards
