Title: XXhighend + DAB ? Post by: stoni on February 09, 2017, 07:04:44 pm Maybee a silly question...
The reason for asking is the FM-network closedown in Norway this year. I've a reference FM tuner, and have tried to reach the same SQ as the FM radio with:
Sorry to say, none of them are even close... The DAC is the best, but not much better than the el-cheepo DAB adapter. I've tried playback software WMP, JRiver, but they sound just the same. XXhighend already can playback mp3, and the radio-streaming is mostly 192kbit/s mp3-format. Any chance for you to include the possibility to copy in a link to a radio-stream in the future?

I have a good FM tuner also (TU-X1) but Australia is not getting rid of FM anytime soon...thankfully.

I think that is a good idea and sure will consider it. Best regards, Peter Title: Re: XXhighend + DAB ? Post by: stoni on February 10, 2017, 11:05:45 pm That would be pretty cool.

Nearly everyone in Norway is against it, many campaigns and lot of lobbyism has not been successful. 20 mill FM radios are no thrown away in the public waste... And the government boasts we will be the first one in the world to change to DAB. Just thinking about it makes me bitter :aggressive: Thanks, Peter, this will be highly appreciated in our country (and maybe some more when they adapt our silly closedown decision :ohyeah:) Stein |
