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

Interesting timing on this subject...I just trotted out my old Pioneer TX-9500 II that I bought used years ago...great FM of course, I was going to try out different AM antenna options to see what happens...not expecting much...AM is almost ALL about antennas...but what the heck...got an unused analog input on my NAD 758 so we'll see...

I am a bit surprised so very few people talk about Accuphase, except 1 or 2 Who had  the oldest ones like the 100 or 101.
 I never tried one myself but know the have a good (at least) réputation for building tunersAre their clients for tuners mainly Japanese or Far East customers ?

I purchased a Meridian 504 tuner but honestly haven't gotten to hook it up yet.
Maybe now with this Corona virus confinement, I'll get to finish the configuration of our system (Meridian 800, Meridian 861v8, Meridian HD621, Oppo UDP205 front end).
More significantly, here's a website that compares tuners:

For some reason, this comes up close to the Meridian 504 tuner review but if you scroll up to the top of the page you'll get to the start of this comparison.
Hope everyone enjoys this site - I have, many times :-)

I have a Sansui TU-919 and a Mitsubishi DA-F20, purchased based on the tuner shootout rankings. I got the Mitsubishi first because the price was right and I had Mitsubishi equipment back in the day, excellent tuner. HOWEVER, everything they said about the Sansui TU-919 is dead on: if you're fortunate to live close enough to a good college station that doesn't compress their music (mine pulled in Princeton University from 32 miles away in PA), the dynamic range and sound quality is right up there with SACD.
Buy one, they're worth it. Mine had some scuffs on the top, but when music sounds this good you listening with your eyes closed anyway  ;-)
