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!

Sansui TU-X1 or TU-9900. They really can hold their own against ANY tuner.Whats nice is that they can be had for a reasonble price even today. Don't, however, forget to hook them up to a "real" antenna such as the APS-9. Just my $0.02.
Marantz 10b w/o a doubt in my mind. Heres a sob story for you I missed one several ago in a estate sale for 75 bucks by 15 minutes (bo ho). Right now I magnum dynalab etude. But by no means equal a 10b or a Day sequerra .
MR-71, without any reservations.
And I currently own almost all the others including a 10B.
For s.s. I can think of two tuners that please my ears and I own them both, the Harman Kardon Citation 18 and the Philips AH 673/44. These are in stock form and with a good signal and antenna can be sonically matched by few, if any other tuners.If you love tuners check out www.fmtunerinfo.com
