Has anyone tried HD radio?


If so, how is it? Is there a "high end" model?

Kocsis,

If they haven't already, Rotel is coming out with a "high end" all-in-one tuner (FM/HD/with a Sirius option). The model number is RT-1084. I don't know about the sound/reception quality of HD radio, but the additional FREE stations is a big plus. I live in Houston, where we have only one part time classical radio station. With HD, I can now listen to classical 24/7. There are a lot of other HD channels for me to select from. Boston Acoustics makes a tabletop HD clock/radio for $280. If the sound quality is 1/2 as good as my Magnum Dynalab Etude, I'll be very happy.

I am curious to find out how the sound quality of HD radio compares with XM or Sirius, which charge $12/month.
