Rmihai- The website mentioned by Albert reviews mostly classic tuners, but on occasion reviews something more recent. In that vein, they rated the Meridian 504 very high on their list, well ahead of many of the very excellent classic tuners. I've seen the 504 in your price range on Audiogon. Good luck.

I just purchased one of the Jolida 402 tuners. So far so good. I haven't completed a thorough evaluation of it yet, but so far I'm satisfied with the value for dollar spent results. Good sound, good reception. I'll post more on my thread next week.
