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?

I'd look for either a Fisher 500c

Fisher 500C | Classic Receivers

or a Mcintosh  Mac 1500/1700

McIntosh MAC 1500 | Classic Receivers

McIntosh 1700 | Classic Receivers

Tubed, balance, bass and treble controls and phono stage
