More for curiosity I have an old (but refurbished) Fisher 88 which is one of the last ones built that required an external MPLX for stereo. This feeds into a McIntosh CR 12 audio/visual control unit and then the signal goes into seperate tubed amps (McIntosh 2102 and Audio Aero Capitole). This whole mess sits below my NEC 50XM5 plasma. Needless to say I get quite the bug-eyed looks from visitors to my home. The old Fisher sounds really good, although it is there more for the curiosity factor. I recently broke many of the above mentioned rules by splitting the feed from my roof-top Circuit City antenna that pulls in UHF(digital TV, analog feeds, etc.) and I cut the end off from a piece of coax cable and am using this roof-top feed for my Fisher's antenna. Great signal reception from stations far away. I can now walk around my living room without 'getting in the way' of my FM signal.
The best sounding FM Tuner is.....
OK Magnum Dynalab, Fanfare, Day Sequerra, etc. owners...I have no "high end" dealer in my area that carries a great tuner. I probably will not have the chance to listen to or 'a/b' compare a tuner before I decide to purchase. I'm asking anyone with comparison experience or anyone that feels that the own the best to respond in this discussion. Thanks, I look forward to reading your responses!
