I know that to many, the idea of having a radio in a Morgan is not the best. I however missed having a radio, mainly to listen to Spotify, and use my phone hands-free. I contemplated a complete audio set-up (head unit, speakers and sub) but the investment in time & effort made me look elsewhere. Anyway here’s my solution. I purchased a Bose Soundlink 2, costing about 150 Euro. It’s a standalone Bluetooth speaker. [img:center]  [/img] Purchased it many because it sits nicely slips in the radio aperture without any fitting. Charges via USB to the cigar lighter (though it rarely has needed charging). Really impressed with the music sound - Nice base, though no contest vs the exhaust note. – even the handsfree/ tomtom output is ok.

Milt, I'll second you on the Bose Soundlink, best little speaker I've come across. Also good for popping in a suitcase for holidays.

Fits like the proverbial glove, and bet it sounds reasonable, good solution.

I have oneof these speakers, they are an awesome piece of kit, great sound with terrific bass. BTW, they also incorporate a microphone so are great as a conference phone should you need one for your office. I really like the neat installation on the transmission tunnel.

I have a similar speaker call a jambox which is a great device but it would not be suitable for a car installation such as this.
