I hooked up a DJ mixer to my stereo yesterday so i could listen to
vinyl & cds on it. I plugged my ICOM R75 into one of the unused channels (via LINE OUT) and brought it up & it sounds great! (in that shortwavy noisy way) It seems like both the audio frequency response & dynamic range are greatly increased compared to headphones(good sonys) and especially the internal speaker. The stereo is a Technics SU-V26 & Cerwin Vega E310's if that matters to anyone. So if your radio is near your stereo give it a go. Now i need a good recorder (& the other turntable). I cant wait to hear some good music on the pirate stations.... we'll see tonight hopefully. ok folks bye -Justin keepin it cloudy in SW Fla....... |

I have a Sony FM/AM tuner in my stereo and it also has SW bands in it. I've
had it since 1986. Don't know if you can still get them. Quite decent for loud broadcasters (BBC, etc), but no SSB of course). C. "J. Tozzo" wrote in message om...

Yes, i also often listen to sw that way, some sw radios have that beefie
sound you are talking about. often old tube ones, but puting it tru the stereo is far the best way.. -- Greetings from Alfred Zoer ( Alfa Lima Int ) ------------------------------------- Our email address Surf to Alfa Lima web You'll find our Hobby's Chevy's Motor Bikes 11 MB DXing And of course Short-wave Pirate Radio http://www.alfalima.net _____________________________________ SW pirates group!!!

It works particularly well if the stereo has an equalizer (instead of tone controls) so you can tailor the sound across the audio spectrum for shortwave reception. -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |

Have run a succession of shortwave rigs through various hi-fi units for well
over three decades! Yaesu's FRG-7 is the Marantz of solid-state units, emulating that auld Hammarlund thermionic tone! Really excels on those Wednesday evening A.M.I. Net broadcasts on 3.870 mhz! Great for Lucky Ocean's "Planet" via Radio Australia also; as well as Auntie Beeb's musical presentations! An audio-modded ICOM R-75 produces a nice fat midrange which sounds luxurious during sports broadcasts! Sony's 2010, through a decent microphone pre-amp, has a scintilatin' retro-vibe as well ! |

My Dx-398 sounds a lot better through my set of Sony powered speakers(intended
for a walkman cd player). I can imagine a good hi-fi stereo would be even better. jt Have run a succession of shortwave rigs through various hi-fi units for well over three decades!

JT,
Getting the "Best Sound" out of your World-Band Radio GoTo= http://www.redbird.net/n8ku/sound.htm Some Highlights on this webpage by N8KU : * Luckily, AM (SW) Radio is by nature not too demanding in the areas of low bass or high treble. * The AM (SW) Frequency Spectrum that you are likely to coax out of even the best shortwave receivers extends only from about 100 Hz to perhaps 5 or 6 KHz. * What you will get from AM (SW) is the "slam" of realistic dynamic range. * Musical programs on the stronger stations such as the BBC or Radio Nederland sound just incredible. * Talk about "feeling the music!" * And as a bonus, I can listen to local AM Stations for more consistent musical programming. * But even for news and talk shows, a professional 12" Woofer raises the intelligibility to a level you won't believe. hsts ~ RHF = = = How Sweet the Sound! joy, Joy. JOY ! .. .. = = = (J. Tozzo) = = = wrote in message . com... I hooked up a DJ mixer to my stereo yesterday so i could listen to vinyl & cds on it.
