Sound isn't brilliant
I must say when I bought this Goodmans GSR-80 radio for £69.99 I wasn't expecting much. But when I opened it up I was plesently suprised to see audio-out options, I was like 'great if the speakers suck I can put them into decent ones.'
When I turned on the screen I was pleasantly suprised as it automatically searched for stations without having to lift a finger and it was all set-up without pressing one button.
The radio is both battery and mains compatible (mains included) which is also a nice feature.
The design of the radio is also pretty nice, functional and a lot slimmer then the other price conscious rivals. The cool blue screen is very nice and displays plenty of info.
The sound quality is functional and there is no hissing or popping in digital radio which is known in cheap DAB radios. But it isn't ground breaking either but at that price do I care?
I have full reception where I live (Brighton) on every single station so if you live around that area or in a developed city or town this is a must for bargain hunters.
This radio is one of the best valued DAB's out there and better then some pricier models. I do say this though if you live in a less developed area I would get a better radio for recieveing as I have heard problems.
But for features, sound and looks you will get no better for this price.
