Question = High Definition Radio Capabilities


Boston Acoustic is releasing a radio in December (2005) that provides high definition capabilities. The product name is Recepter Radio HD and their web site is http://www.bostonacoustics.com/.

Does listening to FM via High Definition provide increased sound quality? I was told that “the performance of a radio station that now does NOT compress their signal is better today than it will be with HD radio. With HD radio, they will break down the bandwidth to accommodate other channels on the same frequency”,

Do you have any experiences or comments regarding high definition radio? Thanks

by default it can't be.
dynamic range as well as freequency bandwidth is very limited for the HD standards.
