plaw, I appreciate your courage to put your experiences in print. I would add on the + side, Magnepan, ARC, CJ and I will take some time to think about other + and a few -. 
Old FM Tuners....O.K., Great or Folklore...
Nostalgia can have a warm glow (must be tubes) and embellish memories.  In my teens I had a decent, real hi-fi, but also bought a mint console, mono radio from the 40's.  It was simply a beautiful example of Art Deco design...and yes the way it lo...

erik,  I agree.  The freedom to like and/or not like is, thankfully, real. In giving feedback on this, or any other, fourm it would seem to be in good faith to not do the "mine is the best" recommendations.  But hey, what I have is truly the best ...

Any comment that ends with "see", needs to be read by the person that wrote it.

Thank you to all that responded.

   Sarcasm is usually a good way to test possible truths and/or non-truths.  Sarcasm has been one of the mainstays of comedians and humor since before the time of Shakespeare.  Don Rickles was a bell cow for sarcasm.             "Whilst it is said...

I did have the Mitsubishi DA-F20 ....and wish I had it back.  One of the best I have had, which includes the top Magnums, Fanfare and the like.   
What have you liked in a Audiophile FM table radio?
Just my experience, I have had two Tivoli models and prefer the sound of the Nakamichi combo. https://www.google.com/search?sxsrf=ALeKk02hdUnlFSb_bMYkByqx4Hi4j7mA6A:1582577775098&q=nakamichi+tm-1+tm-2+images&tbm=isch&source=univ&...

roberjerman3,370 posts   Your post is painfully true.  Not only is the FM dial filled with former AM mainstream.....I will use the word I would in a live converstation,...crap.  Beyond the content you have the concern if the signal is compressed...

Yes the tuner info site is informative, but it is like all other opinions out there, it is in the end result someones opinion.  No site dealing in any interest/dicipline is the word of God...simply some human's opinion.  Unless you go back to the ...

A two way box on a stand can, like all catagories of speakers, can be great or not so hot...  Just like the Golf GTI was a great car in it's catagory,  was it a Porsche, Lotus or a Ferrari...well it wasn't trying to be.  A great dark beer from Cap... 
Thank you AudiogoN and users, for civility....
Maple syrup from Vermont is well known.  If you ever have the chance to get ahold of some, Maple syrup from Door County, Wisconsin can be had online...and is good for a Sunday morning Johnnny Cakes with real butter and Door Co. vs. Vermont Maple S... 
Thank you AudiogoN and users, for civility....
Odd that a thread with an initial post thanking users for civility has taken a turn towards the "dark side".  I can almost hear Vader breathing.  
Your memory of Audio Marketing, esp. B.S.
However compared to ebay, this site is more accurate in listings.  Insert the word  Eames   in the ebay search.  Charles Eames and his wife Rae were designers/architechs in the post WWII era.  There are salt shakers, bath mats...etc being referred...
