Just tuned into Virgin DAB to listen to Graham Norton and
noticed an immediate change in his voice, almost as if he
has a sore throat.

Then I pressed INFO on my Denon DM41 and I see that he is
being broadcast on MP2 80K *mono*. Very noticible change
from FM radio 2.

DAB is the problem...


80K Mono is fine for speech/discussion, but the distortion
with 'music' is too obvious compared to FM R2. I wonder why
they bother with DAB at all and don't just go 100% online ?.
