The best sounding FM Tuner is.....

I'm currently using a very nice old Amber 7 tuner. Still own a Kenwood KT 917 which I'm not going to replace because FM content in my area doesn't justify it. However, I have to say I am surprised this tuner was not specifically mentioned at all. I have owned an MR 78, an Accuphase T 101, a Mitsubishi DA-F10, a few Pioneers, an old Fisher tube tuner which I can't identify today, NAD 4055, Draco Micro/CPU 100 and dozens of others over the years. Of all of these, I would say the KT 917 was the best all around performer. Are they so rare that none of you have heard one?

I went from an Accuphase T-101 to my KT 917 and found that the Kenwood was quieter and had a greater sense of precision in both function and presentation. The T-101 was softer sounding and the 917 seemed more honest due to higher resolution. They were both great but the KT 917 was an easy choice when I had them both here for comparison.
