  I read somewhere that BBC now uses 320kbs ACC

  BBC Radio 3 has been and remains the flagship for obvious reasons.

  IIRC R3 on iPlayer delivers FLAC lossless at around 550kb/s for some broadcasts.

  Not used them but I wouldn't expect so as he quoted me £50 for a service so I assume it's just a wipe down and inspection. Matt is a good guy though, I've bought 3-4 pieces from him in the last 2 years
