    Hi,
    I'm looking for 2 wireless speakers that have pre-set buttons & a 3.5mm jack input, something like Sonos speakers but with pre-set buttons.

    The logic of pre-set buttons is so that you can change radio stations without needing to have a smartphone at hand.

    I want a 3.5mm jack input so I can connect my old ipod to it. I had bought a Raumfeld S One but was surprised to find out that it doesn't have a 3.5mm input.

    I like having 2 speakers so that you have sound from either side rather than coming from just one speaker/area.

    Cheers,
    Pa.

    The only "wirless" style speaker / radio I know of is the Roberts 217 . It has 6 pre-set buttons on the top & 3.5mm. Its a stereo unit so no easy of connection a 2nd wireless speaker.

    This Roberts R100 seems to be exactly what I want; only issue is it's not on sale until March/April next year.

    it has DAB, FM radio, lcd screen, preset buttons, optional battery for mobility, can be paired with another R100 or R1 speaker. Think I'll wait till it's out and see what it's like.

    Interesting - I hadn't seen them yet
