Re: Need a little tuner advice my friends

67.250.98.211

I'm kinda rural so my problem is pulling stations.My wife has a Yamaha CT-800 that pulls well as does a Sony 5140, so I'm stuck with these until I change to a better antenna.
But that's not what you asked.A Marantz 115B sounds real nice and my Sansui Tu-999 sounds virtually identical, probably work real well in your local.They won't pull distance, or at least in my situation.They have a little warmer sound than either the Sony or Yamaha.The Sony's actually a little hard sounding.Both the Sony and Yamaha have 75 ohm connections , I wonder if that has something to do with their pulling capability?
I just got a Pioneer SX-828 and the tuner on it is more tube like than anything else I have.
