Comments Fanfare FT-1A vs. Mangum Dynalab MD-100


I need comments and recommendations regarding the Fanfare FT-1A FM Tuner vs. the Mangum Dynalab MD-100. Price is equal but the Fanfare includes a remote and station sets. Which unit picks up stations better and sounds the best? Should I be looking at any other FM Tuners (priced lower)? thanks.

I went through this a few months ago and purchased the Fanfare. The Fanfare also includes balanced outputs as well as station presets and remote control. From a value perspective the Fanfare is clearly the better buy.

In my system both tuners picked up stations with ease. I am right outside of New York City so that was not really an issue. The Fanfare sounded better, better bass, clearer midrange, more extended highs then the MD 100. The MD-100 is an excellent tuner and either of them will be a great addition to your system. IMHO the Fanfare is the better buy.
