Do any still use an older high end tuner from the past?....


Things like the CT-7000 from Yamaha, other Marantz, Magnum, Fisher, Scott or any others.  It would be good for us "tuner people" to hear your experience with older, former SOTA tuners.  Thanks.

tubegb    makes an excellent point.  I have a college classical station and a tech college mainly Jazz/some classical and all the other stations are mainly this country/rock/mainstream mix of "bar" music.  For all the pleasure that exist in good audio gear, many people have their car radio and the bar jukebox as their musical reference...not exactly the absolute sound. 

This may not be much, but for other/secondary FM use, the Nakamichi Soundspace 5 radio is super for what it is and for the used prices it seems to bring...and for a bit more in a secondary use, the Nakamichi SR-3 receiver is an early, Nelson Pass influenced, superb receiver for secondary use...or a college dorm, etc. 

Mitsubishi DA-F20 .  I have wondered what this unit would sound like with updated caps, wiring, etc....?


Not a great tuner, but a cool Deco radio for sale in my area....I have one so I thought I would share...hopefully this is within the rules.

As a young man I loved the look of the  Sony ST-J88B, but did not know of its sonic merits.
