Internet radio stations that sound really good


There are 3 I have found whose sound quality stands out.

Bartok Radio Budapest, classical channel which broadcasts at 256 kbps mp3.

Big Blue Radio, 128 kbps AAC+ laid back classic rock channel. You can get the stream off of Shoutcast.com without having to register with their web site.

Great Radio, 160 kbps mp3. Classic rock that rocks. I can only find them at Shoutcast.com. They sound awfully good for 160 kbps mp3.

OK.... Here is a great suggestion.

#1: One Apple TV Internet box. Many APP's. including "Radio" $100.00

#2: One Tube Dac. Mine is a Jolida Glass Tube Dac/2. $490.00

#3: One good quality Toslink. Mine is an AudioQuest Cinnamon $100.00 I think.

All are NEW prices.

#4: Plug it all up and tune the Apple TV to "Radio". Scroll through the many music categories and select: JAZZ
#5: Scroll thru the Jazz stations til you come to: WWNO HD3 (PBS New Orleans) Select That one. It is outstanding.

#6: Check to see if your Depends are dry.
#7: Turn your audio system ON and LISTEN to some great, high definition Jazz. Complete Bliss.
#8: Listen till your Depends are damp.
#9: Turn system off and go change Depends.
#10: Return and repeat steps #4 thru #7

For 100 bucks, a Toslink and a cheap dac... This is the easiest and least expensive way that I know of (outside of FM Radio) to have great sounding music 24/7. Even if you have a "to die for" audio system, this is still great listening. Mine plays nearly non-stop. If you don't mind feeling a bit damp, you can even listen a bit longer.

IMHO
