for the 310E


Besides being old school and having great looks for a vintage tuner, the 310E was Scott's top of the line tuner in 1964. Known for it's sensitivity
and ability to pull in distant stations, the 310E also has a very good tonal quality about it. I would put it right there with the best from Marantz, McIntosh, and some of the other vintage tuners that are well known.


Product Weakness: None to be found except not using the proper antenna.
Product Strengths: Ability to seperate channels and stay locked on one, tonal quality, sensitivity, special features.
