Actually, you heard the music off a computer -- into which the CD has been programmed. That's how it works, during the summer.Hope that helps...clark...

At the risk of sounding like a yahoo, can i ask you romy if you have used your PC for internet radio playback. , as opposed to cd or other forms of digital playback ? My cd collection played out of iTunes to my DAC sounds lifeless, pointless. Howev...

I spoke today with WGBH engineers about many aspect of broadcasting and the quality that we, the end users are getting and among many other things he did pitched to me the idea that I am considering to try – the HD radio. According to him WGBH broadc...

The HD Radio for a first time in my own room. Hm…. I do not know what to say. I was listening my “far and ugly” WCRB station and it was “cleaner” in term of noise but it was very different sound. Something is not right with HD Radio and I canno...

Has anyone made any progress on the HD radio front?...
|
|
I did some listening of the station that reportedly has very high quality of HD Radio and I did not like the result at all. I sound like a normal stream of MP3 file, not particularly high rate of MP3. My WGHB station do feed the HD1 and HD2 with very...

hi romy,i like fm. and i like comparing different tunas. in the past ten years, i have bought and sold at least a hundred different tunas. i presently have more than thirty. easily 90% of my music listening is fm, even in the ...

Well, Doug
My attraction to HD Radio statred from the moment when I learned that my WGBH does one less step of analog compression for DH1 compare to FM and do not use limiting-out at HD2 for live-to-tape recordings. Very promising, isn’t it?&n...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]here is the LIVE recording from today via TU-X1. Purely abstractly, what– what specific character of sound you would like to modify of improved?[/quote]Of course it is NOT being compared to playing directly through the TU-X...

I came across this classical streaming station while searching out the net for new music enlightenment. I believe it is in an experimental stage and the only one of it's kind. It makes available 16 bit 48khz signal streamed. It does need a high bandw...

I was “complaining” before that there is some kind of “very beautiful devil” lives in FM radio broadcasts. I can’t figure out why even when they broadcast the recordings from the CDs that I know very well then thier broadcasts impact t more musical t...

Thanks, Gordon
How good the quality of their live FM broadcasts? Are you recording them if they are good?

Yes, you are right, I forgot that it is mono PP radio. I such case one ECL82 triode is driver stage and one is phase splitter. Here is a full cur cut of the radio. There is nothing special in it – a very typical circuit. http://www.goodsoundclub.com...

After much research I found the radio that I like. The decision was base mostly on the esthetic: size, color etc, sure I was conserving the circuit but only up to point. The choose when for German Schaub & Lorenz Goldsuper W42. It is 1957 ra...

Are these restek.de satellite tuners any good? I am wondering if I should update my fm tuner or if it is waste of money if we will be listening to satellite or internet based radio only in next few years. I like the idea of getting german live broad...

I got this heavy portable multi-band radio when I had a lot of down time and no energy, just wanted FM that was easy to turn on and off, mostly to listen to in my bedroom, including at night while I lay in bed. In particular, we have a local no-ads ...

Is it just an excuse to sell your old equipment? I think as the community of music and audio grows smaller, there is often a revival of high quality audio, so there is a great deal of variability. It may be next season that a new person with a passio...

Hi Romy, I am a little behind the times as regards internet radio, etc.. Can I run some sort of cable to listen to these stations on my audio installation, or is it just for listening on the computer sound ?Thanks,R Weissman...

I used to listen to one of those German tube table radios. Graetz Sinfonia or whatever.IIRC it had a SEP stage with some EL84 and a plastic kind of mini-horn for HF and in general was running oldtubes, has never been cleaned etc. But nevertheless aft...

Romy,A friend of mine has the Tivoli table top radio. I was pleasantly surprised by the music it produced. It was not bad at all. I realize it is not a great radio, but it is decent for the price, and it is small.Adrian...

Yep, this year was kind of different. The twins hit me like
much harder than the first child and to have “3 under 2” under the roof with
two parents having full time jobs is not fan at all. The new listening room was
the main new things but frankl...

Wojtek, I am indeed hemmed in by the fricking electricity these days, to the extent that it is about impossible to hold on to a baseline for reference. And the Lowthers only make the problem more apparent.Yes, I still wonder about how I wo...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Anyhow, I like your idea about the "memories" but not in the context how you used it. [/quote]
I kind of semi-write about it in the thread about the “Remembering Sound”:
