GRS - Gruppo Radio Sperone

GRS - Gruppo Radio Sperone is at 202 in a listing of 400. Read the rank as a rough position rather than a standing: the click counts in the middle of a long national list are close enough together that a handful of opens moves a station several places.

The open count against GRS - Gruppo Radio Sperone is two, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

Nothing else in Italy's listing leads with golden music. The tag is self-declared, which makes it a statement of how the broadcaster positions itself rather than a classification anyone audited, and on this dial that statement is unique.

320 kbps against Italy's median of 128. Streams at this rate are the ones worth finding a good pair of headphones for, and they are uncommon: 70% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps at all.

The stream is served from onair7.xdevel.com, an address five other entries in Italy use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
