Are there any stations in your market processing separately? Can you
tell the difference when it switches to digital? A former CC employee
on this list says their stations are but both analog and digital are
identically processed here, so I can't hear any difference on my
Accurian. I wish I had waited and bought the Sangean. The audio
sections of all the table radios are pretty dull and lifeless. One
thing I don't understand is why a component digital radio wouldn't
have digital outputs.

Is "good enough" good enough to get the average consumer to notice a
difference and consider the radio worth buying? Is it as dramatic an
increase in quality as the cheerleaders claim? It certainly isn't on
the BA Receptor, the Accurian or the Polk. The Kenwood is good and, I
assume, the Sangean is dependent on the audio system you use with it.
Like most people, I have no intention of buying more than one receiver.
