OP said audiophile... which assumes a lossless or at the very least a high bitrate stream

sweet, thanks. if only i can figure out how to play it with foobar instead of wmp so i could get bit-perfect playback.

edit: nvm, i figured it out. works perfectly with my cable connection and wmp + asio.

i'm really digging KEXP, they play everything that i like to listen to. thanks for the recommendation stan!

btw - for people with slow/old computers. you can play the stream directly from wmp by just pasting the url. i find that when i play it in the browser it uses lots of cpu power and freezes my computer. by playing directly through wmp, i turn off the visualization and it saves me some power. i'm using asio and srdoubler plugin and it sounds fantastic.

I'm loving this station!

Can anyone tell me how to get it to work in foobar?

Ive got it going in windows media but would much rather use foobar.

Thanks

Doesn't do anything when I start it up. Does anyone have the network address for it?

For use in foobar: http://acropolis.lokalen.org/?downlo...put_mslive.zip

Works fine. Stream #1 is 128kpbs, #2 is uncompressed.

anyone manage to get the KEXP uncompressed file to run out of Squeezebox? i'm able to run the compressed version when doing a search but can't seem to find/run the uncompressed version.
