I'll nominate WCLV in Cleveland for that list. I haven't caught one recently; but in the 70's they frequently had live broadcasts from the Oberlin Conservatory. Even with my mediocre gear at the time, the broadcasts were breathtaking. Told me the problem wasn't my speakers (original Advents) or even the Pioneer SX990 receiver I was using; but the phono system and the crappy quality of the other stations in the area. The phono system was not easily fixed as the RIAA EQ in the Pioneer was way off, and upgrading the cartridge and TT wasn't going to help until that was right. I spent hours padding components in the RIAA network until I had it spot on and then got a new TT and cartridge. Pioneer fixed that in the next generation.
