A little pricey but this gives access to all current forms of radio. It you cant get a station on this black beauty then it doesnt exist!
You have trusty FM, quality DAB and the vast internet radio.
Most radio stations from around the world stream on the internet now so this gives you access to thousands! Even the stations that stream at a low bit rate sound magnificent on this Roberts.
The sound quality is what matters for me which is why I bought this. It doesn't disappoint.
The unit is a little smaller than it looks in photos but that is not necessarily a bad thing. Its small and light.
Although it has various alarms built in, I wouldn't use it as a clock radio as the display is bright and blue and not great if you like a dark room. It's best for the kitchen or study.
Ive got a few internet radios and this is the best. Most internet radios take an age to start up with buffering etc. the Roberts is super fast, i dont know how they do it but it starts playing the selected internet station almost immediately.
This is a true radio and will get you any station you want!

I live in an area where the VHF signal is variable and we have no DAB signals at all. Two local friends had already bought internet radios and I realised this would solve my problem, listening a lot to Radio 3 where it is essential to have good quality sound. But what is a magnificent bonus is to have access to international stations, I happen to be a jazz fan and I found two NY stations which play 24 hr jazz of high quality. The only snag is occasional breaks in transmission and a short time in loading the station, I went for the Roberts radio and its quality is very good indeed.

I have had the Roberts Stream 202 for about a year now. Recently I updated it to the latest firmware which can be downloaded through the menu system on the radio itself.Make sure that you update using the mains supply and a good wifi signal or preferably using the ethernet connection on the back of the radio, otherwise you may ruin it!It is much better now as the updated firmware makes more use of the dot matrix lcd display with even more information displayed,Signal strength,bitrate,quality e.t.c. The main benefit that I find with the latest update is the ability to dim or even turn off the display on the radio;the old software would not allow this and it was really annoying at night as the display was very bright.All in all though this is a serious piece of kit and I would have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone.

Weighty product, reasonable performance, average design.
This is an expensive radio and needs lots of the large 'D' type batteries if you want it to be portable. That means a lot of weight and a cost. Read more
