Thankfully I am in a position where I can afford to choose my own radio and I would certainly choose the Sonus over any of the Roberts models I have seen. Iain. ----- Original Message ----- From: Darran Ross Duet maybe because of DAB and FM? Admittedly, sticking on some yellow knobs and asking another £20, does indeed seem a little bit cheeky! ----- Original Message ----- From: Tristram Llewellyn The radio is from article evidently a modified Roberts RD8 available from anywhere but with yellow knobs stuck all over it against darker caswork for an extra 20 quid over the usual asking price. Most significantly it doesn't speak it's display. I'm curious as to the name "duet", it's only got the one speaker, what has it got to of? Regards.
