It may be that the souind we want from the old radio is non-aggressive and capable of tenderly re-stirring the sense of things as they "were", which is to say, as we "remember" them. The radio is a tuner, an amp and a speaker or speakers, so it oug...

I get much enjoyment from the Norwegian Radio web radio. They have a wonderful mix of the music that I like which is orchestral and advanced chamber music. They broadcast at 192KB which is not super fidelity, but their choice of special performances ...

I do not know what the satellite radio in Europe, I know that you have a different system in there but in US satellite radio in my view has no bases to talk about better or worse tuners. This is digitally compressed signal, so what is the difference…...

Romy--I guess I don't know where to start without giving offense. Forgive me if I start back too far. NPR, WGBH, WBUR, etc. are all independent entities--separately incorporated and managed. WGBH and WBUR are local instances of stations all around th...

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...

Recently I tested the waters of computer audio. I've been using a Sony SCD-1 transport / Museatex Bidat DAC combo for digital playback. It has been a source of enjoyment for years. My goals for trying network-based music files were:- reduce physic...

[quote user="steverino"]FM is Analog Signal Processing vs DSP. The compression aspect is only really intrusive on orchestral works. Pop and jazz are already compressed and chamber music presents a more limited dynamic range if not limited contrast. B...

Hi again Romy. I have never tried many of the 'super tuners' such as the Sansui TU-X1, Accuphase T-1100, Yamaha CT-7000 etc so I have no idea how this newer BW Broadcast unit would compare with them. Luckily the BBC still broadcast some very good qua...
