Robert:

Actually, when I used the Alt-3 method, I received two numbers: Bit rate, 128; current bit rate, 320.

However, when I used the JawsKey+Shift+t method, it did report 320.

Don't know what that's all about.

Cheers.

well now, on my machine, windows reports the bit rate as 320 and the sound was crisp and full--a much better sound than a 128 bit rate could provide. I have a very fast modem here--it is a modem designed to receive tv signals so do you have a high-speed modem--I think possibly you do. You did select the high speed setting did you? Could it have been that the station was streaming only at 128 kbps at that point. Apparently they were experiencing some streaming issues. I actually left the stream and came back later and insert-shift T reported 320 kbps on both occasions so it would be interesting to hear what others are hearing in terms of a bit rate. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Noseworthy" <jim.noseworthy@xxxxxxxxxx>

Hi:

Winamp reports the bit rate of that station as 128. Hmmm.

The quality on this stream is truly amazing--streaming at 320
kbps--definitely the best sound I have heard on the net. I have both
bookmarked the site in Winamp and saved it in my favourites. There is also a second option for the low bit rate stream for those who do not have high
speed internet. This station will provide a whole new listening
pleasure--especially for classical and jazz. Thanks--and as Jim would
say--"all over the place."

Hi Gang:

Is there a payed or free site on the internet where one can find high
quality streams of classical and jazz with streams higher than 128K?

I know that I can find them through Shoutcast; however, I am looking for
a
site that hosts exclusively high quality audio streams.

Thanks.
