Do any still use an older high end tuner from the past?....

Not entirely on topic, but I do still own a McIntosh MR71. Over the years, and living on the left coast, there were excellent FM stations to listen to. Classical music, a college jazz station and two classic rock stations were just some of the choices.

 

Over the years many excellent tuners came and went from the likes of Marantz, Sansui, McIntosh, Fanfare and Yamaha. Sadly, I now live on the right coast in a large city that is an FM wasteland. The MR71 remains…packed away. I’d have to say I miss all that great free/quality music.

Sorry, I think I’ve been locked up for too many days already.

Like rpeluso, I use a Luxman T110.  In my audio life, I have owned two different Marantz 10Bs, as well, and I have lusted for a Sequerra.  But it doesn't make sense these days to spend so much on a tuner.

McIntosh MR-74 and Luxman T-110, both upgraded by Don Scott and both wonderful. Yamaha T-2 recently refurbished and also excellent. Also quite like the tuner section in my refurbished Tandberg TR-2075 MKll receiver.

I have a barely used Jolida tube tuner that really sings when I had it connected.  Put it up for sale but got got nothing but uhhhh radio silence (sorry).   Nice looking unit too maybe I’ll break it out again
