Re: What are the best years for Tandberg solid state?

The 3001A was a tuner, not a pre-amp, and one of the best ever made. About 6 months ago, I sold off an example of its cheaper cousin, the 3011A, that was pretty unbelievable, too. I had two of the four generally-accepted candidates for "best tuner" ever (Day-Sequerra and Revox B261, the other two which I didn't have were the Tandberg 3001A and McIntosh MR78) and I think the 3011A was better than the Revox and could mostly hold its own with the Day-Sequerra.

Tandberg, I believe, still makes small lots of audio equipment -- but they have no official US importer or support but their old repair network still seems to be chugging along getting parts as needed directly from Norway. I think Avalon Audio still imports and sells their newest 4000 series of components.
