It is clear to me, how quality of radio gear (in this case), over the years, tend to draw a general conception of things, being unimportant, not by tech itself, but of great bias imposed by poor quality equipment. For example, the FM modulation that carries both L+R and L-R signals that later, your radio will add up and substract to get L and R that produces Stereo FM. I can notice that it sounds really good in my Tecsun radio. Stereo FM does sound good if you have a quality receiver. #radio
