And just for the record, most FM radio stations sound pretty poor.
Radio 1 is compressed so much it has a dynamic range of about 2dB.
Radio 2 is generally OK, Radio 3 sounds very good apart from the
music...
....thats not Rod's doing is it?....

Pass. He said he worked "in broadcasting". So I was merely making an
observation about what broadcasting is like these days.

Average output quality of broadcasting stations is the product of the
efforts and opinions of many people. I only mention my connection with
it to make it clear that I have had plenty of experience of what a large
variety of audio equipment is capable of sounding like, not to mention
live music of course, so I think I know what I'm hearing. Some people's
only experience of music is through boxes in their living room, and
their only knowledge of what those boxes are doing is through very
non-technical articles in hi-fi magazines, but that's not me.
