Creek- Arcam- Rega.... best tuner of the three??

I have found most Britsh tuners while having decent sound, seemed to be challanged by U.S. broadcasts. I seem to hear subtle but consitent background noise. I bet Sean could shed some light here.

I have the Rega tuner and it sounds great. I also have other Rega gear which it fits right in with. I have not heard the others. As mentioned above, the Fanfare is loved by many. I also have an old Tandberg tuner and it is magnificant. You can find these used for $350 or more. However, they should be updated. Soundsmith can do this for you.

I have a Creek CAS-3140 that I've had for about 10 years now and it is great sounding.  I got it in trade for a NEC T-710, where on another Audiogon tuner forum, someone said that this was one of the best sounding tuners around that no one knows about.  A real sleeper.

Fmtunerinfo has some very positive words about the Creek 3140 which d I can attest to especially when using a quality DIN to RCA chord.  When using a nice DIN to RCA chord, this tuner goes to a whole other level.  

I'll be selling mine soon, just because I've had it for 10 years and I want to try something different.  

I can't speak on the Arcam or Rega tuners, thanks.
