What is Wrong With HD Radio & Why Aren't HD Tuners Being Made?


I have HD radio in my car and I like some of the sub-stations that I am able to pick up. I would like to listen to radio in my house, but audio manufacturers aren't making HD capable tuners. Isn't it suppose to sound better?

Why don't people like HD radio? I'm in the market for a good tuner and I'm confused as to what I should be looking for in a modern tuner.

Please help me understand.

THANKS

The current best technology for high quality audio is streaming… most all channels available on the air are available through streaming… thousands all over the world. So, there just isn’t a long term place for them, the manufactures know this.

 

Streaming services like Qobuz offer such high quality and variety and 30,000 radio stations. The depth is simply astounding.
