BBC Radio 4 FM is hardly compressed, so listening to its speech progs is not
so easy in a noisy car. Is there a good, switchable 13V stereo compressor
made that can be installed between pre-amp o/p and power-amp i/p stages of a
car radio? I am not keen on processed DAB.
TIA

Probably be a lot cheaper than something designed specifically for the car. They
use 9-volt adapters, IIRC, but should work fine on 12V, or just pick up a
cigarette-lighter regulator and hardwire it in.
