Gapless streamer

[admin_exported]

I'm looking for a replacement kitchen radio, so it doesn't need to be the best in terms of sound quality. What it does need to do is receive Radio 4 and stream my music collection (saved as flac files) gaplessly. I thought the Roberts Stream 83i was the solution, but it doesn't support gapless playback. I then thought about the Pure Evoke Flow, but it doesn't support flac!

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Keith

Sonos Play:3.

£260 for a Play:3 would be OK, but then you have to spend £280 for a control!

only if you don't have an iThing, droidthing, lappy or desktop pc.

Not to mention that they don't make the controller anymore.

Squeezebox Radio. You can get two, run in sync and handling L an R channels for stereo.

1) Your existing smartphone (iPhone / Android / Windows) or iPod Touch or PC / Mac can control Sonos for free.

2) You can get Radio 4 through the Internet, on Sonos as well as Squeezebox.

The Squeezebox radio doesn't receive Radio 4 - it's Wifi only.

So there doesn't appear to be one!

My wife doesn't have a smartphone and she will be the primary user.

Likewise she insists that it can receive a broadcast of Radio 4, not a stream.

The Denon is much too expensive.
