Post Subject: I won't argue about the technicPosted by niklasthedolphin on: 6/25/2008
However...............in the old days when FM broadcasting was still analogue some of the programmes were worth listening to here in Denmark for the music and for the technical quality.

Today everything broadcasted is digitalized and when it's about live concerts of classical or jazz music at the best danish Radio is broadcasting comparable with 24/96 digital resolution.

But be aware that it matters more than the issue about digital vs analogue (as long as we are in the top level as 24/96 digital) what origin, what mastering, what studio/live sound-engineering set up is present. What Microphones are used, can the technicians control the level of dynamic compressing and equlization, how is the room accoustics, when in the chain wil it be AD converted, is further digital compressing needed etc. etc.

That is the reason for still leting my great Tandberg TPT 3001A stay in my setup...................for those special sendings with the rare combination of great music and great technical engineering. The latter is today becomming a very scarce handicraft or art.
