Stereo advice

[tim]

My b'day is fast approaching and for once I actually know what I want - a good radio that will either directly connect with my Ipod or at least accept a cable connection. My frustration lies in the fact that there are somevery good ipod docking speakers eg Bose and there are some very good radios but not (as far as I can see) both. If anyone can advise a make/ model then I would be most grateful.
Cheers

Hi Tim

Could have sworn I replied to this earlier today. Ah well.

If I understand you correctly you are looking for a radio with an audio input? So you can plug the iPod into it.

You don't say if you want the radio to be portable or if it should be DAB. You could go for something like this if it doesn't need to be portable

Or you could think laterally and get one of these !!

Thanks guys.

Roger - I already have an iTrip (although don't use it because its not legal :wink: ). It also does need to be portable.

Wizer, thats more like it but I think it might be a bit tinny and I'm afraid my desire to purchase was to great and I have ordered one of these:

Pity Herefordshire is a DAB 'blackhole' as far as reception goes :wink:

Got here too late - the Tivoli is supposed to be very good, at a price.

Not that bad over this way - possibly helps that the marketing director for Pure lives about a mile away. He's a client of mine.

Trust me, getting favours from clients is a big mistake.

I think you might be right.

At least the Pure has an audio input for your ipod.
