Before the COVID pandemic, in this part of the country every Sunday we could get excellent quality live feeds of top notch concerts and operas. For that alone, it’s worth having a good tuner. And good used tuners can now be had for the price of decent pair of used interconnects. Which is kind of amazing.
The value of a good FM tuner?......, now and in the future...
For most of my adult life, FM radio has been an introduction to new music and artists. With some stations, in some towns I have lived in, the quality was good and the music was good....Jazz, Classical and more.
My question is, what is to be the near term future of FM. Is streaming of audiophile quality? Online stations through my computer is not for me, my computer is not audiophile quality sound.....can Magnum or anyone make a unit that can make "online" of audiophile quality. Like a good lp or disk, the source is what all of the electronics have to work with. ......so, what it the future source for FM or the like?
Thanks

unsound , thanks for your input. I hope there is a future and a good future for radio/FM music. Perhaps I am just an old audiophile, but radio has been such a part of my music history and love. In my business heyday I knew several Jazz artists, players and singers. It has been such a part of my life that my travels to NYC, Kobenhavn, Chicago and others have more memories of Jazz than of the business reasons I went there in the first place. Buying Danish Modern furniture for my store back in "the states" left almost no impressions compared to the Jazz bars at 2 in the morning. It was amazing the quality of live music I could see at that hour. It is said that NYC is a city that never sleeps, and that may be true, but in my experiences Kobenhaven can give NYC a run for its music venues. |
