Your Top 3 Affordable Musical FM Tuners

Posted by JoeLA (A) on August 22, 2006 at 09:14:14

Greetings to All,
I am currently listening to a SS Kenwood KT-8300, #44 out of 84 in the latest shootout at http://www.fmtunerinfo.com/shootouts.html. There are many other tuners that are listed higher in the ratings which now are way off the charts pricewise due to these ratings. I have the 8300 attached to a Cayin TA-30 (no longer in production), a wonderful EL-34 integrated tube amp and the sound is very acceptable; but, I was wondering what other SS or tube tuners you have found that are "sleepers" and affordable for under $200 which I could try. How favorably would your recommended tuners compare with those in the fmtunerinfo ratings? Would a SS tuner be a better match with a tube amp or not and why not? I would appreciate knowing about your top 3 recommendations and your reasons for liking them.

Thanks,
Joe
