Stuart, I asked about digital radio in a post to this forum over a year ago, but received very few replies, and those few contained no good news.
Just about every digital radio currently available is a tinny little boom-box; many of them monaural to boot. As far as I can determine there are only two component receivers available that match closely with existing amplifiers, but they are ridiculously expensive. I have emailed Elgato, the makers of the excellent EyeTV tuners, to ask if they will be making a DAB+ tuner for Mac, or supplying software that will allow DAB+ decoding using the existing tuners, but have heard nothing in reply. As a temporary solution, having waited in vain this long for a reasonable-priced digital radio tuner I am tempted to buy a cheapish boom-box that has stereo audio-out and connecting it to my amplifier. That way I will at least be able to listen to those many DAB+-only stations that are not available on the AM or FM bands. As expected, none of the purveyors of DAB+ radios that I have visited would guarantee that the audio-out of their boom-boxes were stereo. All of them just stated that they assumed that the outputs would be stereo.
