I want to kiss this damn thing! I agree with Romy that hearing a good FM redefines what a (true) high-end is. For the past 5 days I've been listening for live FM streams of baroque concerts from Gdansk   http://www.actushumanus.com/
Covid destroyed the concert life this year and the FM is the only thing left to enjoy. I know the church, I know how (shitty) it usually sounds in reality, sucking grundtone out of the music, unless you are in a very specific spots and now this FM...its a blessing! I'm now in a new place (Warsaw), the electricity is new to me, the system was moved, cables disturbed, there is Pure Power in the chain (will comment later on it) feeding a shitty household power strip before I reconfigure mine and a new antenna and still....after a few hours of warming the sound locked into this "FM magic" and is just a pure pleasure!
This is the new antenna installation. The transmitter is only a few km away but screen behind the apartment block so I'm catching a strong reflection I guess. The meter shows 45dBf, multipath in the zero region. Don't ask me why the antenna wants to stay close to the steel railings, but it just wants.
