tuners, the red headed stepchild?


Why don't tuners get more respect? Talk about a passive component, just turn them on and walk away. They're the easiest way to get hours of uninterrupted music, yet compared to other sources, they are an afterthought.

not bad in the Raleigh area -- 2 jazz stations, one good classical, wcpe - also streams, good blues Thurs and Fri nites on wsha 88.9
gotta find a decent tuner with good pulling power
respect--- looks like they get the least amount of bytes online compared to other sources
I agree wholly. Besides, it's nice not to keep getting up to change the CD or LP. In budget brands, which ones are good? I am thinking about the new NAD 515. Good means sound-able to make compressed signals sound better - and good signal pulling power.
Every metro are has its NPR at least one classical station. Take away those and all the talk talk stations, and what's left? Limited playlist hip hop, classic rock, and pop? Does NY have eclectic oldies with R&B, wide range classic rock, regularly playing Chicago or Delta Blues or Jazz? Hmmm?
