D.A.B. radio - under £50

Lidl's latest flyer (Available Mon 19/6) has a chunky looking DAB radio with 8 preset channels, LCD display with a clock & alarm in Wood or silver finish. Looks like a good piece of kit for the price. £49.99

They have a slightly more basic one for a shade under £35...nice price for DAB

Shame that they don't show the Technika models on their web site!

I'm toying with the idea of getting one of these Lidl radios as it has sleep timer, however I was listening to a 'Gadget Detective' show & the guy said the 'Talk Sport' Dixons exclusive DAB radio was very good. It seems it also has sleep timer & the battery lasts longer than the average DAB radio & is made by 'Pure'. He highly recommended it. Any idea's on these two radios.

ASDA Dual dab digital for £39.99! square, kinda similar to the Evoke at a push - but not bad looking, worth a visit if you are thinking of buying one.

I saw this in another MSE posting:

Creative SoundWorks 500 DAB Radio for £39.99 available from Amazon - please see link below. FREE Super Saver Delivery

This is a great deal at half the price of other online shops for a quality DAB radio at a budget price. There are some user reviews on another website who are charging TWICE the price - please see here http://www.lowestonweb.com/Products/ShopDisplayInfoMain.asp?e=F1A4E8CD-03E6-444D-8DAD-A6EF1D191520&td=1

The 'talksport' model is the cheapest feeling radio i've ever handled.

In my experience it's worth paying a bit extra for a DAB radio. The cheapest ones really are...cheap.

I had to send my first one back when I thought I was getting a bargain and ended up being out of pocket on the postal fees.

There's a little review of the creative soundworks dab 500 here: http://www.goaudio.co.uk/creative-soundworks-500-in-depth.html?PHPSESSID=e6dbc6969e159a143761427b2da3bada

I just ordered one for the bedside table. I have owned other creative soundworks products and find them to be good quality/performance and from time to time you find their stuff at really silly prices
