Good AV Receiver with good AM/FM reception.


I currently have an Arcam AVR200 that is excellent for music and movies but the tuner section is pretty much useless. I get some FM stations but AM, forget it. I have a cheapo mini Onkyo receiver in my computer room that pulls AM & FM really well.

I've tried antenna's and even made a DIY antenna. Still nothing.
Any thoughts are appreciated.

I can tell you that the Aragon Sound Stage does NOT have a good tuner. I sold a Fanfare FT-1A when I got the Aragon and have been kicking myself ever since. What makes it somewhat okay is the fact that I have gone to satellite radio and it was a great choice. Unfortunately the compression codec for satellite radio is not very good so for quality sound it is lacking. But the content is such that I have been listening to radio on a regular basis now. I would suggest going with satellite and a pre/pro with treble & bass adjustments to deal with some of the satellite deficiencies.
