Okay, so here’s some hopefully useful info./options to get you going:

Fancy Internet radio: still fairly expensive but there’s a few suggestions here from Purple Radio DJs (those with more money than sense, mainly) who’ve gone with this very show-off option.

An iPhone/iPod Touch/docking station combo is a great, mainly hassle-free way of tuning in. This is the route I’ve recently taken in the kitchen so family meal times are now also Purple Radio time (no talking). It’s very easy to connect; you just visit the PR website, click on one of the listening links at the top of the home page, plonk your chosen device into the docking station and away you go. Instant music \o/  

Hi-fi connection. If you do have the option of being able to connect to a home hi-fi/separates set up – which is by far the best way to listen in my opinion – then a 1 x 3.5mm stereo plug to 2 x phono lead will be required in order to connect your PC/laptop/Internet radio/phone via the audio out or heaphone socket to the line in connection at the rear of your hi-fi amplifier. Maplins do a decent enough cable for a tenner, which might seem a lot but you’re only ever going to buy one so quit yer moaning. Serious audophiles wouldn’t flinch at paying 200 notes for an interconnect so just count yourself lucky you’re not that anal/stupid. 

Right, I hope this wee bit of info. has been of some use and helps you to get the most of what we do. And of course, if you have any useful suggestions for your fellow listeners – PS3/Xbox streaming advice especially welcome – then please leave a comment below. Or if you just want to show off and post a picture of your equipment then go on right ahead.

Happy listening.   

Cheers
