Hi Jacky. Well I have a couple of choices such as the iPad or the laptop and 
the recent addition which is the talking freeview box. I was looking for a 
dedicated radio which I can put in the bedroom.  I haven't purchased a stereo 
system for years now and don't know whether it's  worth getting one of these 
Bluetooth speakers instead as I only really listen to sport and very little 
music!
