As a former lesser demon of the Batwinged one (I was a Moto FTR for several
years), I can say that bad audio on digital systems is not really due to the
digital itself. The digital system is reproducing the audio it is given
perfectly. The problem starts in the compression that Moto uses to reduce
the amount of audio that must be A/D converted. Their compression removes so
much audio quality (audio range and harmonics) that the audio sounds like
crap before it ever goes into the digital system. They do this to pass more
data in the same bandwidth. GIGO.
