Every time I sit down and listen to my Marantz network streaming player I think back on the horrible times I had trying to listen to classical music on FM radio. Back then I lived in NJ and between three military bases. However the local classical stations were so compressed that they were rendered unlistenable. And the NYC stations, for such a world renowned city it sure had mediocre classical stations - oh I meant - station! But if you were lucky enough to even get a NYC station in that would depend on if the "local??" illegal stations that the FCC didn't want to touch weren't on that day. Oh yeah, then there was a country and western station in Philadelphia that on occasion would decide to crank the power dial to death ray. Boy I don't miss my tuners. |

I can't be bothered. I live in an apartment building so it's just easier to stream what I want to hear. |

Still have my tuners and antennas because I am too lazy to sell them. |
