Blind Person Needs a New FM Receiver

I need advice. My grandfather is 85 years old, is blind, and needs a new FM receiver, but can't find something that meets his special needs. His old FM receiver, a Yamaha KR 1000, finally bit the dust. He is looking for a new self contained integrated unit that he can examine, if possible, that has the following features: high definition FM tuner, CDP, push button controls - no LCD because he can't see the display, amp and pre-amp in the same unit of course.

Your advice is greatly appreciated!!! Thanks.

I hate to use the "B" word.... since he's blind, just don't tell him it's a BOSE! Kidding. He could learn the remote, as long as it doesn't get "misplaced". Very simple and the remote would have station presets, I'd imagine. Good luck

I know.. "he's blind, not deaf"! Sorry, one moment after posting I realized my full thoughts weren't down. My suggestion was mainly for convenience and ease of use. I don't know the man and his tastes. Again, good luck
