Enjoying the Original Music Streaming Format - Analog FM Stereo


I am fortunate to live in an area where there are still some high quality FM Broadcast stations. I am also fortunate to have been gifted a near-mint, seldom used Luxman T-450 analog tuner (circa 1982.) Listening today to a broadcast of modern music on WDET, I was almost shocked by how fluid and dynamic the sound was. After so much digital streaming, much of it HD Flac, there is nothing like a well dialed in analog broadcast!

The DJ's on some of the local stations still spin some vinyl, pops. clicks and all.

My favorite FM station also has a 256 kbps WAV stream that sounds awful. Whereas their OTA FM broadcast quality is first rate. I too listen to international streaming stations from Europe, the UK and Africa. That doesn't minimize my enjoyment of local OTA FM broadcasts.
