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

RE: Need advice on "running" a bank of 20 turners

One problem with doing so many comparisons with tuners is the music material will not be the same and memory retention ecept in general impressions soon fade. It will require a good checklist and note taking for each tuner and likely going back again and again for some time. For 20 tuners, having evaluated units for so many years, the project, if each tuner was relatively decent could take a couple of years. The only way to shorten it up and have meaning is to would be to set up a FM transmitted to control the music for content and repeat-ability if the sound is a criteria. The tunerinfo shootout was to determine the dx'ing ability more than the sound quality of the tuner and in some cases while the dx'ing ability seems consistent based on my experiences the short comments as to sound quality are not consistent with my evaluations of the same model a number of which I had in system for as long as 6-months and others for years.

An interesting project, none the less and a great way to justify to others the rationale for having tuners stacked to the ceiling and not as my wife continually states there seems not reason to keep so much dust gathering things that never get used. Of course, with amps it is different: 20 amps & 20 sets of speakers all playing at the same time is rationale and justifiable, at least to some of us.
