Take the simulated HD radio test drive.

Talk about dirty rotten lies. Listen to their simulated comparisons of
Am/Fm and their supposed HD sound. To be honest my 7 year old $12.00
mono clock radio sounds better than their simulated sound of Am/Fm.
And their simulated HD sound really sucks. listen for below..

What a big joke.

Something is wrong when they have to degrade the sound of Am/Fm on
purpose to make their system sound better. My GM factory radio sounds
just a good.
Do they really think we’re that stupid? I guess so!

Did you read the NOTE at the bottom of the page? It tells you it's
not a true replica. Obviously, the sound will only be as good as your
internet connection and system, including speakers, will allow. The
idea of this comparison is to push the idea that the HD Radio will
sound much better than analog radio, as the similation clearly
indicates. I think you missed the whole point.

Neither the HD audio sample nor the analog sample sounded very good. On the
HD sample, the spoken "s" sizzled and some of the syllables audibly popped.
These errors come up from time to time on analog radio, and now I'm
wondering if they'll be the norm on HD radio. The analog sample was a
misrepresentation, as AMer's typically broadcast normal bass.

I won't claim my computer and speakers are up to audiophile standards, but
it typically sounds better than what I heard. And any good wideband AM
radio will sound better than either of those samples, provided there's
anybody who cares to broadcast wideband AM anymore.

I think you might have missed the point. Average people who buy ipods or
radio's won't know or care about compression. Clearly they meant to make
Am/Fm sound poorly compared HD. Duh.. HD is sold has nearly CD sound, people
will hear HD as in high def & CD sound. They'll use their ears to judge if
HD is worth $100.00 So far there's no interest. Anyway it's just a big
joke..

I suck at tests.
