JVC Portable HD Radio
Posted by Chris Gohlke in "HARDWARE" @ 04:00 PM
"The JVC KT-HDP1 is a stylish, inexpensive way to bring HD Radio programming into your car. Despite a couple of design niggles, we are generally impressed with its usability and range of programming options. We also like the multiple options that drivers have for connecting it to their car stereos, but if you want the true audio benefit of HD, we suggest a hard-wired install."
Not to bad a price, especially considering that HD Radio does not have any subscription fees. I do question their decision to include an FM transmitter though. My experience with FM transmitters has been such that any quality benefits from the HD radio would be more than offset by the poor performance of most FM transmitters.
