I just bought the Milwaukee Packout radio along with the Makita single stereo (pictured at the top of the article) and the Dewalt. I am an audiophile purist so warm sound is critical. The Makita won by a large margin. The milwaukee had a boxy sound and the dewalt I thought was the worst.

So is the Craftsman and Flex Radio/Speakers good for 2022 or not? Or were they not tested?

I’ve actually used a few of the models in this list and out of the ones I’ve used, I would agree with the way they ranked them. I did expect to see the tough system radio here, but to each their own. DeWalt, Makita and Milwaukee consistently make great products that appeal to a wide base, so I would expect to see them consistently at the top.

Out of curiosity, how do you think this article should’ve been different?

I agree the Ridgid sounds the best I actually upgraded to the Gen5x radio which has Bluetooth controls and it’s amazing what u can do on the Ridgid app u can basically control the entire stereo and then some! Now I had the Gen4x without the iPod dock so that one may be different, however my Gen4x Stereo I became weary of the speakers and I opened it up and there are no tweeter speakers in it they just put the small grills there to make you think there were tweeter speakers there, I see the same thing in cars a lot it’s just plain ridiculous! Check out the link to my video where I have take it apart and show there are no tweeter speakers there!

I’m going to step on Clint’s toes and answer that one for you! We haven’t reviewed it yet, but it’s on my radar. We’ve seen the system a couple of times now and the sound quality is pretty impressive for the size. They jumped on board with 12V and 20V Max charging, which isn’t terribly common yet. Although we haven’t given it a full review yet, I really like what I’ve seen so far.

Clint, have you reviewed Dewalt’s Tough System Music Jobsite Radio yet? Dewalt # DWST08810. I am thinking about getting it and am looking for thoughts? Thanks

All of these radios run off batteries (DC).
