FM vs. HD RADIO.... anybody think FM is better?


So I have a mint Marantz Model 20 tuner and a FM ANTENNA on the roof. I also have an HD radio tuner in my Marantz 8802a (Av surround processor)

Its it it just because I love my model 20 that I think my local classical station (WRR DALLAS)sounds better on FM than HD? (Both have access to roof antenna) 

The HD Definitely is clear with zero static, but the FM sounds fuller and more real. It’s like with the FM your inside the concert hall and with the HD you just listening to a recording.

Maybe im crazy....
thoughts ?

I had a mint Marantz 20B. But I lived in a deep gulch surrounded by high hills — very scenic, but I couldn't get even a decent signal, much less a good one. There was no way to mount an antenna because it would be on someone else's property. So I sold it.

But I moved a few years later. I regret parting with it.
I suppose that HD radios are better than FM radios.  HD offers better sound quality.  According to many legitimate HD or high definition radio reviews, this type of device also makes it possible for stations to integrate more programming. All they have to do is to use additional channels that they can broadcast along with the main frequency of the station. 

HD is terrible, I have the famous Sony HD model whose number escapes me. FM is pretty great with my Magnum Dynalab.

Actually, "HD radio" does not stand for "High Definition." That’s because it can’t: HD radio is actually a low bitrate encoding scheme. So if you like mp3 files, you might like HD radio. Yes, it has excellent s/n ratio, as most digital does. But that’s about it and in the US, many stations have discontinued use of their HD subchannels. It’s a technology that was not properly launched initially, and has never recovered.
