In Reply to: Accuphase Tuners - T-100 vs the rest posted by Ross on December 11, 2007 at 21:18:09:
Ross,
The T-100 is a superlative piece and well worth acquiring at the money.
I also owned 109 and 105 - there was little point in keeping them (to my ears) when put head to head with the T-100 - which was, and remains the Japanese definition of a 'laboratory grade reference tuner' - Accuphase did not take prisoners...
However the T-100 (like any great source) is system/cable sensitive. The same is true (to a greater extent, I believe) with the deceptively natural & musical Marantz 10b. You merely deeply inhale the aroma of magic through a competent system, but in a sympathetic system... oh my... the 10b sings it's heart out and hits the notes like no other, - and then you really are dining out with silver service :-)
The juices are flowing now!
Happy hols
