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


Things like the CT-7000 from Yamaha, other Marantz, Magnum, Fisher, Scott or any others.  It would be good for us "tuner people" to hear your experience with older, former SOTA tuners.  Thanks.

Im down to a Mitsu DA-F20 & a Kenwood 600T both gone through by B. Ammons who is best known for his filter adder board which will upgrade selectivity .
Unfortunately since moving out of probably one of the last bastions of multiple good non commercial FM stations (s.f. bay area) I am now living about 3 hrs north and my favorite term for this area is FM wasteland. So, mostly listening online to my fav stations.

I have a new APS 13 languishing in the garage. Never installed as I was using a Winegard FM only yagi back before and sold as planning to put up the APS13 w/rotor of course!    -- But as not really content in being here so have not put it up. I probably could get Sac a tomato stations although wondering if much there anyway. Ive probably checked online and didnt find anything

Ive been listening to non commercial FM so long Ive been through all the major genre’s for so long that the usual offerings from say NPR and such would just not do much for me.

Now a days search and listen to what might be termed as ambient or new sounds actually a station out of NY WQXR.. has program called new sounds. There is though a good classical couple of hours on sunday nite coming out of KALW out of the bay area.
I use Mcintosh MR67 ver 1 rebuilt by Audio Classics.  Ive used other tuners, but I like this one best.
PS:  You must have the rebuild.
I still use my 1981 Sherwood S9600 CP receiver. It has always had a first rate FM receiver. Even used it in Europe. I use it now. It has the best FM section I’ve ever had, out of 11 receivers. It’s an analog tuner with digital display, PLL phase lock, defeatable, switchable stereo or mono. Flywheel tuning. 
My Magnum Dynalab FT-101A, which I got new from MD years ago and was later upgraded to an Etude by MD shortly after buying it (MD is located about a 20 min drive from me), I use it every day. Its a toss up which gets dealt with first int the morning, coffee or radio. I’ve owned it since new and living in Toronto, we have a range of really good read stations. Been meaning to mount the MD antenna waaaaay up high in the new place, just have not got around to it. Left one behind years ago after moving out from an ex’s place. Wonder if it was ever used after I left? Doubt it, and it had an unobstructed view up there. Oh well. Have always wanted to hear some of the classic tube units, but no such luck yet. Super happy with my MD, it makes radio so much more pleasant. Recently upgraded the caps in it also. Fantastic sound piece of gear. Never say never, but I see no reason to ever get rid of it. Will possibly PU some older mono tube unit with
matching mono amp to drive a single speaker - kind of like a BIG Tivoli radio :)

Over the years I had many good tuners. Don’t really know why I sold most of them (often making money for another project). Also because I am an audiophile after all...

- Ion Systems Obelisk FMT1 (I still consider it as « the Little Big One »)
- Naim NAT 101. A bit better possibly because the external PSU ? 
- Naim NAT01. Still better yet if you have a very good antenna.
- Day Sequerra Reference. Great. Sold it for money. I know this is not considered as the best Sequerra tuner.
- Tandberg 3001A. Very close to the Day Sequerra. Near perfect. Too much perfect ?
- Leak Troughline 2 re aligned and entirely fixed by « London Sound ». Expensive but very good work.  Needs tons of signal for working. Maybe the best for voices but silence in stereo mode is near impossible. At least at my home and I have an outdoor antenna.

Finally came back to Naim NAT01 as I listen only one station for classical music. It is the most balanced of all them (for my taste) and very « human » on spoken voices.
