Are Tuners - Audiophile quality

Continued - equally bad. My tuner produces the sound of a $ 100 turntable (including arm and cartridge) and less than any CD on the market. Does anyone know if you can get "audiophile quality" from a tuner. Any recommendation of a tuner that produces such quality. Thanks,

Yes, you can !
But there are only 2 ways:
- You go and look for an old one ( Marantz 10 B, Fishers etc )
- or when you like new ones it is very easy, because there are only a few out there
Naim NAT 01 and 02, Dynalab 108 ( maybe the lower ones too, but these I don't know ) etc.
These are really able to transform an antenna signal to something really impressing when you listen to it.

But it is not cheap.
Cheap models sound cheap , unfortunately.

Classe use to make an FM tuner. I think it retailed for $5000.00. I would consider this an audiophile piece. I saw one used once for $4000.00 at a local stereo store.
