FM tuner fans, somebody get this!


If I had a itch to give up my trusty Mac MR 71, I'd be all over this.
You would need to find a stereo multiplex unit, since it's mono. Or for ultimate mono cool, hook it up to a vintage mono amp and a horn speaker. Forget the Marantz 10B, this is it.

Art Deco cool, and yes all the hype about the sound is true.
Worth just having one in the rack, even if you don't have reception in your area.

I use a MX110z that works like a charm. I don't use it. Last time 3 years ago, wonderful, stereo FM reception, was easy to pick up with a Wall antenna in Sacramento, 60 miles away... No idea what it's modeled after in the Mac line up... Sure is a sweat heart of  a preamp and tuner though..
phono stage was really good to come to think about it...

I need to get back into that... FM use to be so nice on a Friday/Saturday night, few friends over..... I miss that.. Thanks OP, I'm gonna drag one of the 110s out... FM it for a bit...
