Which tuner to get and getting the most from it. Thank God, for the radio!

McIntosh MR-71

63.193.145.160

My previous tuner were a Magnum Dynalab FT-101 and Revox B-261. Today I have a beautiful Mac MR-71 with the coupling capacitors upgraded to Jupiter Beeswax, all tube are original if you can believe that.

Unfortuneately, in Los Angeles, there are only three stations that sound great, KKJZ Long Beach Jazz, 91.5 KUSC Classical and 105.1 KMZT classical. On these stations the MAC is a joy to listen to. Sometimes the imaging in incredible.

The Revox had a little tighter bass, but the MAC is much more musical.
