lots of 'small footprint' tuners 'new'(er) and old

Posted by mhardy6647 on June 20, 2019 at 06:04:34:

In terms of the "modern" (it's all relative!) era, Parasound's erstwhile Ztuner fairly leaps to mind.

Dimensions:
9-1/2" w x 1-3/4" h x 10 " d, 2 " h without feet

Net weight: 4 lbs.

In terms of the old school... Here's a cute little (mono) AM/FM tuner from days gone by, from Bell (not Bell Labs, of course), as an example of "the old".

The Bell 2255 tuner is quite small; even the Sansui TU-4400 upon which it is perched is narrower-than-usual for many 1970s-era components. :)

(The Bell's 9-1/2 inches wide, same as the above-mentioned Parasound, vs. 15-3/4 inches width for the Sansui)
