Sansui, Yamaha, Technics, Onkyo, Hafler and JVC are some that I’ve used over the years. I got off the tuner merry go round after buying a modified sony xdr-f1hd by the xdr guy. If one still listens to am and fm, the xdr is tough to beat. The unit is sensitive, selective, small in stature, sounds great and has a remote control. It’s the only piece of gear in my systems that I’ve never contemplated replacing. It’s used with a Magnum Dynalab whip antenna outside about 25 ft up. Very nice.
