i had a couple of the older 18 volt radios and they had absolutely no bass at all.  do any of the newer radios sound better?  can anyone compare to the makita or milwaukee radios?  those sound great.

If you like the Makita or Milwaukee give the Bosch a try. Bass has been redefined! PB360. Also they are FINALLY introducing a BT version!

That new small dewalt radio is convenient but one of the worst I've used and reception was terrible. The Milwaukee charger/radio is a little pricey but you will feel like ur in a night club, great sound and well worth it!

Job Site radio wise I think the Milwaukee M18 blue tooth or Bosch Powerbox can't be beat. Like Chrisk mentioned a Bluetooth version should be out pretty soon. The only thing is Bosch tends to be the slower of all the tool companies.

I thing the DCR017/DCR016 sounds okay.. But you will be blow away by the Toughcase radio that will come soon..!!!

thats an odd shape.  maybe in europe you guys use those containers, but here in the usa not many use those containers.  so the shape of the radio is kinda odd.

You'd rather a giant cube than a slim compact design with 4 speakers?

oooh, that looks nice!  i actually have an older milwaukee radio.  

i guess the shape is kinda odd to me being more flat than upright, like most radios, no?  oh well.

I have been on the fence about which one of these radios I need. I think they are all pretty nice. I'm having a harder time picking a radio than I ever had picking a tool!

I have 3 of the tough boxes. I made a liner from foam for the Dewalt drill set I have since all it had was a bag. I bought a Dewalt 20v recip and it came with one. I got the big one as a carrier for other stuff. They are pretty rugged. I was looking forward to that new Dewalt radio but now this Milwaukee is out and seems like a better pick. Also the Milwaukee will charge batteries. Can't beat that.

The Dewalt tough case radio will charge batteries as well. It has 4 speakers and 2 subs so the sound should be better than the older models. Can anyone confirm that the tough case radio has better sound and bass than previous models? OH and they finally put BT in the full size radios, no more adaptors necessary .

The latest Dewalt 'Tough Music' - (to use it's official description) totally blows anything else out of the water.. 

 

I was on a Jobsite (here in the UK) the other Day, and the Dewalt Team came to visit me (as part of my usual product testing duties) so I asked them to bring the New Tough Music Radio.. 

 

We set it up and left it running for an hour or so whilst we discussed new products.. 

 

Within that time, 2 out of 6 other contractors on site, got on the phone and ordered one.. And one of them contractors currently holds no other Dewalt tools in their kit.(as yet)...

 

Thats how good the product is....
