The problem is, it's never going to sound as good as your FM4. Ultimately, yeah the SB is great, but I don't see the point of internet radio when you're listening to something you can get via FM. The SB is no more convenient than a tuner (OK, your Quad may not be remote control, but how often do you change channel?), it's always going to sound worse than FM until they broadcast 500+kbps FLACs (never), so stick to your radio. What really annoys me is that Radio 3 is broadcast via DAB at 160kbps, which is a lower rate than the sound part of their TV channels (256kbps). It seems bizarre to have something where the audio is all at worse quality to something where the audio is the side benefit. Actually, it doesn't annoy me - it just makes me glad I haven't bought a DAB tuner! :) -- adamslim SB3 and Shanling CDT-100, Rotel RT-990BX, Esoteric Audio Research 859, Living Voice Auditorium IIs, Nordost cables ------------------------------------------------------------------------ adamslim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7355 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28626 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
