digital tuners


I am currently using a Rotel receiver RX-975 as my tuner but am considering upgrading. My system is Rogue 99/88 and Meadowlark Shearwater speakers.

With digital broadcasting on the horizon I'd like to buy a highly sensitive tuner that is in line with the rest of my system and that will be compatible with this digital format. I listen primarily to NPR and local college stations but would like to pick up stations in Boston and NYC if that is possible from Hartford(125 miles from either) I'd like to spend less than $1000. Any suggestions ? Thanks

To get those stations you desire, you will need a good antenna. It's a tough situation, because of the digital format being thrust upon us. I believe we have quite a few years of analog FM broadcasting yet, but it raises the question, is it worth it to invest heavily into a good antenna. I am sure you would greatly enjoy it, but it something that will not have a resale value, if that is an issue.
