I am in the market for a new tuner and have really enjoyed reading this forum on the Top 10 Tuners. A lot of these posts are over 2 years old and I was wondering how the new Accuphase T-109V stacks up today (it has been recommended as the best by the dealer here in Denver who also carries McIntosh and Magnum Dynalab)? The Accuphase T-109V is mentioned in this forum a couple of times but I believe it was really too new to have been thoroughly understood and evaluated during a majority of this forum. Am I correct and what are everybody's thoughts on this tuner?
A couple of people here have mentioned the one on my shelf; DENON TU-800. No one has mentioned the Luxman T-117. I heard them side by side, I prefered the Luxman. My friend had both, unfortunatley the Luxman died. Luxman no longer services the US market and parts are no longer available.
As an update to my posts above... Wanted to add another vote for the Classe Tuner-1 and any tuner modified by Don Scott.
Hallo ,
the best tuners of all are this one , who where build to serve other tuners , in German " Ballempfänger " . I have two Rohde und Schwarz EU 6201 and two Telefunken EBU with nuvistors and professional decoders like R+S MSDC . They are build in professional way and never sold to the public .At their time , in the 70s , a EU 6201 costed 5000 § . All what you hear here in Germany , passed a "Ballempfänger" in the transmitter towers and then comes to your antenna . There is no other way to hear good music from FM , you must use the same receivers the professionals use .

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the Linn Kremlin. Expensive, yes. But VERY nice. I managed to get my hands on a latest spec 25th anniversary model and wouldn't give it up for the world.
