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?

The last I read at The Tuner Information Website, Accuphase T-1000 - Kenwood L-02T - Sansui TU-X1, are the tops.

Big money though, and I’ve never seen a North American version of the Accuphase.

I started with a Rotel RT-2100: hard to find, but sounds excellent.

Then - Rotel RHT-10: took me almost three years to find one, but sounds fantastic, fine soundstage, black as night in the silences.
