Portable Radios > Roberts Portable Radios

Advantages: Good connectivity with other devices. Good sound quality.
Disadvantages: A bit pricey, would be nice if they included some more leads.

...have recently been given a Roberts RD25 (or Roberts 'Gemini 25') by my mum. She was given it by someone but did not want it, the person that gave it her was given two digital radios for Christmas. I am going to buck the trend and keep it for myself because I think it is great. -What is it?- This is a combined digital and analogue radio, which has a few other useful features which I will go into in more detail. Apart from receivng standard MW/FM ...
...and loved by older generations. roberts have seen a revival in recent years and this has been helped by the advent of digital radio and also by our love of retro styling. Roberts produce some really nice wood and leather finished radios (now with digital capabilities as well as MW/FM/LW/UHF) that make anyone over 35 hark back to a more innocent age, and a tear of nostalgia well up in one's eye, the RD 25 however is a different beast all together. ...

Advantages: Portable, good volume, lightweight
Disadvantages: none

After looking around for ages I finally decided on this based on many reviews of many products online and from talking to friends etc. I am very happy with my purchase. The IM600 is lightweight, easy to fold up and carry around in a rucksack/handbag. While plugged in to a socket, your iPod charges as you play it, and when you use it away from a power source the lithium ion battery kicks in (up to 8 hours playback apparently, although I have never ...
...with or without the power supply, which I was really happy about. It also comes with a remote control which is handy and can be used from a good distance away! To top it all off it als
