Did you listen to any of the Proms via the XHQ 320k stream?

I'm curious to know if anyone else heard 'gaps' at times -
particularly if they occured at the same times I heard them. Not yet
clear to me why they occurred.

The two Proms concerts I listened to on the 'high quality' had no
audible glitches.

Which concerts/pieces?

Slainte,

Jim

Proms 64 and 70.

Guess my musical preferences.;-)

Cheers,


Chris.

64 = W.F.Bach, Arne, Pergolesi

70 = Handel, Vivaldi, Telemann, Porpora

Hmmm. Difficult. :-)

Alas, your choice wasn't the same as mine.

For the 320k stream test I used 67, 71, 74, and 76 (naturally), plus
one of the Chamber Music proms. I guess the Chamber one (Music from
Venice) might be closer to your taste than a lot of the rest.

Slainte,

Jim

Not sure if I am previous in mentioning this. But IIUC the BBC are now
announcing that they plan to make the XHQ 320kb/s stream permanently
available as 'HD Radio' for Radio 3 listeners to the iPlayer.

Slainte,

Jim


Unfortunately not for us poor s*ds who live abroad.....
