Hi Tom,
I don't know yet as I still have to purchase it.
The podcast was a short demo of the Sonata Plus and it didn't sound bad
but I presume that as the product develops then the speech will improve.

Hi Jim,
I have the original Sonata and the quality of the sound is terrible.
It's even worse listening to it via the Hi Fi.
Maybe this podcast was done using the old one.
They should recall these old Sonata's and dump them.
Out of curiosity, does the new Sonata Plus still have it's speaker
covered in cloth, it's so so old fashioned.

Hi Jackie,
I listened to a short podcast from the BWBF website and although the
speech wasn't perfect, it wasn't bad. I don't quite know how old
this podcast is so I wonder if the speech engine has improved since
the piece was recorded.
What's your opinion on this?
Cheers.

Hi Jim
I have the Sonata Plus, and have it linked up to my hifi system.
Frankly, I
would hate to be without it as DAB is non-existent where we live
and, for
what it is worth, the quality of the Sonata is way better than DAB
in any
case.
Enjoy!
Kind regards,

Hi List,
I'm about to purchase the Sonata Plus internet radio from British
Wireless for the blind and I know that there are a few sonata plus
users on this list.
I'm just looking for some feedback on user experience.
I'm really looking forward to getting it set up and interfaced with my
hi-fi system.
