I hope you like commercials!! Current over the air raiding ain’t what you remember it being 10 years ago. All the stations are owned by three corporate conglomerates. In the chicago are you can tune to four stations back and forth to hear the same artist or songs at the same time. Then a commercial break starts so you think you can go to another station to not hear them? Nope they all run commercials at the same time. Then like tv you are lucky to get 35 minutes of music per hour.
Tuner - FM over the air - suggestions
OK, so I kinda miss being able to just tune in my local over the air classical music station and let it run all day long... So...
I'm looking for suggestions for a good new over the air tuner, with remote. I don't want nor need to go super expensive, so let's keep it at under $500, and preferably more like 300 or less but I'm willing to consider. This is not for a super-critical application, just background music mainly when I want to set and forget and go about my day.
I know there are loads of vintage tuners out there too... but I'm trying to keep it simple. Perhaps if there's a decent vintage with remote for not too much money, ok... but I'm leaning towards new, based on my recent success with new stuff. It'll be hooked into my Marantz Ruby amp via RCA in.
Sangean? Rotel? Rolls? DST? Teac, perhaps...?
