I think we've pretty well established on the list before that Roberts
haven't got a talking radio on offer. I heard rumours last year that they
were planning one, but nothing seems to have come of it yet.
Like you, I'll always hold out for a radio with decent sound quality. if
you're going to spend any amount of time listening, it's well worth it.

Hi Everyone
I know I am rather late on this thread.
We have the Pure Sonos 1 at home, and the radio and the speech sound really good. I wish they would reconsider their decision not to put speech on their
pocket DAB radio.
However, is there a comparable Roberts radio. All the Roberts DAB radios I have heard so far seem rather muffled and boxy.
I was told that the Roberts RD15 sounded ok and was quite small so could be taken on holiday. I tried to buy one last week, but the one I saw was rather
rattly. I also tried the RD25 which, although it had two speakers, was worse. The man in the shop tried to sell me the RD20, but it looked rather like the RD3,
which I have recently sold because I did not like the sound. It also sounded like a ghetto-blaster.
I am not using this to bash Roberts, but I would be interested in anyone's thoughts on the subject. I would welcome another radio with speech, but I would like
it to sound good.
