I have been thru several tuners and the best sounding to my ears are the Mac tube tuners. I have a McIntosh and like it better than the Mc solid state tuners (MR 78 and MR 74) I owned both. I have not compared other tube tuners to the Mac. To me the Mac tube tuner sounded better than an Accuphase T 101 that I had as well. I did direct comparisons in my system of the Mac MR 65B vs. MR 74 and 78, Accuphase T 101 and liked the MR 65B better. I have since gone to an MR 67 and a modded MR 71. Both beat the 65B.
The Silkworms I thought might be over kill for an old tuner but they really give it more life. I have heard and read that the Sansui's are really nice but have not heard one. Guess I am just tube stubborn.
Regards
