Radio recommendations

mrshappy · 2011-09-02 21:11:48

Looking to buy a decent radio as a birthday present for my Dad. Looking to spend between €100-€200. He doesn't need any fancy gadets as such, he just likes listening to the radio so wondering if anyone can recommend a good quality basic radio Thanks

Roberts and Sony have an established reputation for making radios. You could have a look on http://www.argos.ie and then go and find somewhere cheaper to get it if you find something suitable.

I'm a fan of Tivoli radios... http://www.pixmania.ie/ie/uk/10717/77526/xx/17/4/criteresn.html or similarly Vita Audio from Cloney who had these had a great price a while back... maybe they still do. http://www.vitaaudio.com/
