I use a Laptop and AQ Dragonfly USB DAC and like KJEM and KCSM (Jazz) and NPR. How is a standalone Internet Tuner better?http://134.121.234.129:8000/NWPRKJEM.m3u
For what it is worth, I am currently using a Roku as an internet radio tuner.I used to have a Squeezebox Classic but it conked off.
320K AAC can sound surprisingly good. BBC3 and KWAX-FM (out of Oregon) both have classical streams at that spec. 256K can sound respectable but just that little jump (256 to 320) seems to make a big difference. If I could find a good jazz station at 320K, I'd be as happy as a clam at high tide.
Looking for an internet radio tuner to connect to my audio system.
What sort of fidelity can be expected?
If you go to shoutcast.com and click on Jazz and then click on bit rate (to sort the stations), you'll find some listed as 320bps and you can right click the icon next to the play button to copy the URL. Sometimes the bit rate listed is not correct.
