DAB+ radio for the wifey?

Get her a smart speaker. Then she can just tell it to play what she wants.

@tls49  LOL. Yep, it is actually a good idea.

Lots of smart speakers available, and some actually sound decent. Google Home Speakers can also play via Bluetooth. If you want to take it a step further, get a Chromecast Audio to connect to a system, then use a Google Home Mini to control it.

I have the Bluesound Pulse Mini portable speaker (mains powered)

Simple to use - plug it in - pick a preset internet station from your smartphone app - great sounding radio!

Buy a second unit - pair-it - and you have stereo anywhere

It also has manual controls on top for Pause/Play, Next/Previous track and Volume

Take it anywhere there is mains power - you get
+ Internet radio stations (from anywhere)
+ streaming services - currently 15 to choose from
+ Music from your phone via bluetooth
+ music from USB stick/device
+ music from a NAS drive (if you have it setup)

Altogether - I have

• a Node 2 in my 2-channel audio system
  
• a PowerNode2 as my A/V system on the TV (with sub) - no surround sound - but the stereo is very spacious and effective
• a Pulse Mini for music in any other location I need it
• One app controls all three
• pair them up to play same content on 2 or more units
• Ethernet or Wireless
• Pre-set’s are very useful
• play-lists are east to use
• view music (on NAS or USB) by Artist, Album, Genre, Composers, folders and Favourites

There is a Windows/Apple app that makes setting up favourites, Playlists and Pre-sets very easy

It’s like the Sonos, but I liked the sound quality and interface better and the Node2 on my audio system provides superb sound quality when kitted out with great cables.

Software updates are a breeze to install

They changed my whole approach to digital music and sound better than the DAC I had previously and I haven’t looked for any other device since.

Best of all - "Wifey" can work any/all of them from her phone or tablet :-)

Hope that helps
