Can I use my McIntosh MX 113 as a Tuner only

Thanks for the information, Onemug. I'll take the tape output from my Model 18 to the tuner input of my Proceed PAV, and move the turntable input to the PAV from tuner to AUX, unless you have a better recommendation. Presumably because they did not include a phono stage, Proceed did not provide a phono input. I use the PAV/PDSD for audio only, with a separate HDMI switcher between my PS3-80 and Direct TV HD DVR for video.

In looking at my Marantz Model 18, it occurred to me that in addition to using its tape monitor output to deliver FM to my Proceed PAV, as Onemug suggests, I should be able to use that same tape output for the phono stage of the Model 18. The Model 18's phono stage may or may not be better than the Channel Island Audio phono stage and power supply I bought on Audiogon to use with my vintage turntable toy, a toy that sounds much better than I imagined it would.

Dbphd, Good idea. Just set the 18's input selector to phono when it's time to spin. It will be interesting to see how the Marantz compares to the CI.

Well I pulled the trigger on an MX130 offered here on Audiogon. Thanks for the tip Onemug. It seemed to be priced about the same as most of the C39s I saw.
