There's only a few stations around, that play music and most newer equipment, the bandwidth is too narrow to provide good fidelity.

There is some good old equipment....The mid 50's - early 60's AM-FM simulcast tuners tried to make the AM channel sound as good as the FM channel by way of really good engineering in the AM sections....This is the exact reason why last meet I went to I grabbed a Fisher simulcast tuner, and later bought an FM MPX adapter. With those I can build a tuner that sounds really good on FM AND AM.

Could be fun to 'roll your own' homebrew HiFi AM radio though....
