If you like classical or jazz, have a look at Linn
radio/classical/jazz - and at 320K mp3 some quality as well!

320 is almost listenable!

Been listening to it for ages. Their choral recordings are
particularly pleasant.

I've also been quite happy at times to listen to the Linn 320k mp3 streams.

Ditto for various 320k files that the Concertgebouw released a few years
ago as freebies.

My impression is that the bitrate alone doesn't tell the entire story. The
quality will also depend on how well the encoder 'judges' the audibility
requirements. Matter of settings and details of processing. And how much
the producer avoids adding problems like excessive level-compression or eq.

But I do wish more net radio stations would aspire to at least matching the
BBC's use of 320 k aac for R3! Alas, too many seem to think that clumsy
conversions to 12k mp3 are 'high quality'! :-/

Slainte,

Jim

Yes. I've heard one or two good recordings at 128k from Venice Classic
radio via my Pioneer N-50/MDAC/Quad Elite/Quad ESL system.
