Fine little radio

Contrary to some of the other reviews I found the sound quality quite ok. You just can't expect to much from a radio this size and price. I can't say how good the reception is which some reviewers thought was poor. Radio 4 Extra comes in fine with no drop outs etc. My Pure MIni II was good enough but the cable on the power adapter broke after about 18 months and then after replacing it I started to experience problems with the receptor for the power supply plug which would probably have been on the main board. Does what I expected it to.Read full review

Sony radio xdr s40 dbp

far less useful than the previous model which enabled feeling both sleep timer button and choice of three preset programme buttons during the night without having to switch on the light. Was most useful to get back to sleep without having been woken up to programme. Most disappointed as I purchased this assuming these features would have been retained.Read full review

Sony Digital Radio

The only negative thing I can speak about is the very topic "Getting Started". It needs a lot of key pressings to make a set of PRESETS. In fact I have only presetted two stations. Otherwise it's a brilliant radio with excellent sound.Read full review

Sony XDRS40 Dab / Dab+ Review

Everything is good about it except for a constant background buzzing noise on all channels which gets annoying when listening to news, conversations etc.

I must say that it is a joy to use - very easy.Read full review

Great little radio

This radio does everything that it says on the box. Really easy to use with a good overall sound. Bright red finish makes it feel modern in design.

Very poor reception. Review now edited.

I have sent a message saying the reception is very poor on DAB, and would like to return the radio. My other radios in the house receive DAB very well. Please contact me to arrange return

4th Nov 2017. A return was arranged very quickly, but I persevered with the radio, and it is now working well. I am not sure why it was so temperamental when I first got it. I have changed my Star review from 1 to 5. Read full review

Excellent little radio

Easy to use and DAB+ picks up all the stations I use, local and national. I use the radio with rechargeable batteries as it's small enough to carry with you around the house and garden.
