    I’ve got an ancient HiFi setup that I seldom use that has gothic separates ie. amp, wired speakers, tuner, CD player, cassette player...

    How do people listen to radio at the moment? I think I need to buy Bluetooth speakers, or a single Bluetooth speaker, but to play radio from what?

    Thanks

    If you have a smart phone (or a tablet), a cheap 6mm headphone plug to a pair of RCA plugs will give you internet radio
  • I have a DAB radio in the kitchen and an Amazon Dot for upstairs - that pairs with a bluetooth speaker.

    You should be able to buy a bluetooth receiver if you want to 'enable' you old kit to work with phones/Amazon echos. There's no point getting rid of good audio kit!

    Sometimes I run a cable from my sky box over to my Denon mini-system if I want the radio in nicer quality.

    Gave up on Radio's a while back. Using Google Home Hub for day to day radio and music.
    If I want to fill a room or the house with music the same Hub will cast to any room I have speakers in.
