Default Re: Wireless comp to stereo device?


The FM stereo sampling rate is 38 Khz. You can get frequency response up to about 40% of this i.e. 15 Khz.

The problem is the low output power, prevalence of other
signals on FM, and generally poor transmitter (device)
quality to make it cheap. If one were to spend a lot on a
high quality transmitter, at that point they might as well
just go digital. Seems a high expense to avoid a 10' wire,
especially when there are also emerging audio devices that
can use wifi to transmit which have now dropped under $50.

You are correct. IMHO that is not appreciably worse.

Please do not top-post. Your answer belongs after (or intermixed
with) the quoted material to which you reply, after snipping all
irrelevant material. See the following links:
