What can I expect to hear from a decent analog FM Tuner?


Will these provide something warmer, different or enhanced from Streaming or CD?  I currently have a vintage Kenwood 700 M amp that I am using with Benchmark DAC2.

The main complaint I'd have on FM vs. streaming is that, on classical music, FM will compress the signal on the most dynamic parts.  Pop music is usually compressed to begin with, so it's not as big a problem with that genre.  But one nice thing about FM is, while you're at the mercy of the programming, some of it is quite good and may introduce you to really good music you might not otherwise hear or choose.
