Then I suggest that you borrow your daughter's DAB radio, hook it
up
to a hi-fi and compare it with DAB. You need to do that BEFORE
commenting on the adequacy of the audio quality on DAB - but that
hasn't stopped you so far....




Listen to this. It is a few seconds each of FM and DAB. Which is
which?

I'm not playing your little games, Pearce. Sorry.


I knew that when to came to a real test you would prove to be all
mouth. Having proved a failure, you can go.



BTW, do you have any evidence to back any of these up:

"Because classical music is generally far more complex and demanding
than modern pop - it takes a greater degree of intelligence to
understand and appreciate it."

"CD already has a definition way beyond that of the human auditory
system"

"It is pretty much impossible to compare CD to SACD."

"Since the CD there has not been a single development that has
improved
the sound, so none has been widely adopted by the classical listener."

If you can't, then you're a failure, and you can go, Pearce. On you
trot.
