Hi all,
I am thinking of upgrading the digital radio to an internet radio - what models do you recommend?
As a bonus, it would be good if it had the controls on the top of the unit (like my current Pure Pop).
Thank you!

Thanks Rod, will have a look.
Just bought one of these myself - Roberts iStream 3 - https://www.robertsradio.com/uk/bund...SAAEgKpC_D_BwE
Good bit of kit. I wanted one that could run on rechargeable batteries as well as mains.

Ruark is very good but since getting Sonos I don't tend to use it anymore. Would be worth looking at Sonos.
I'm using from more than 1 year an Auna: https://www.amazon.co.uk/auna-Kitche...07B9YWXZG?th=1
It is a good quality radio and the sound is crystal clear.
Why not just get a Sonos Play 1?
Price? The fact you're locked into their 'ecosystem'?
Those were the factors that swayed me away from Sonos.
I bought a Roberts R1 to stream music to my bedroom from a NAS - It works well, sound is good enough for my requirements and it only cost £50.
To the OP, it will play Internet Radio stations through an App, but they do another model that is a dedicated Radio, with (I think) tuning controls on the unit.
Is it as good as a Sonos? I hope not for the difference in price, but it's decent enough.
I'm thinking of getting a second one as they can be linked as left and right stereo speakers.
