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

Since fm is no longer analog through, what sense does it make?

FM is still analog, even though most stations rely on digital sources. But there are exceptions, including live broadcasts.

... I do enjoy cousin Brucie on Sirius XM. Anyone heard a magnum dynalab XM?

If you enjoy XM, you'll get a much higher bitrate and higher fidelity from its online stream than is available from "the birds."

Don't know if considered high end, but my Pioneer TX-9100 is a cherished, if seldom used, tuner.

Our Sansui TU-X1 is on from morning till night. The best tuner I have ever heard, and I am 74 years old.

I listen to jazz and classical FM stations almost everyday. I own three Luxman tuners. Two are analog T110 FM only and a T300 AM/FM. The third is a digital tuner T117 AM/FM. I enjoy swapping tuners, amps, preamps etc. from time-to-time.

The Carver TX-11A is remarkable, if you can find a good one. Mine has had its output capacitors replaced and has a fancy power cord. The quality of the station's transmissions is really the big factor here. No tuner can make a lousy signal better. One of my stations is breathtakingly clear and has excellent sound. The Carver will show you the difference between good & bad stations.
