Magnum Dynalab made some great recent receivers, and the Outlaws also quite good...as much as I like the vintage ones, even fully refurbished ones have lots of 50 year old parts and lots of potential issues and problems...
Best Receiver?
I’m setting up a second system with a set of stand mount speakers and a nice Garrard 301 and want a tuner built in, rather than an integrated amp. Of all the receivers, vintage and more recent, what’s the best sounding? I always thought those massive Marantz etc looked great but didn’t sound particularly good. Anyone have experience with something that sounded great?
