Do higher end tuners pull in more stations


?
Have got a nice bottom of the line NAD digital tuner (think it listed at about 200 when I bought it two or three years ago) and a well installed (IMHO) outdoor antenna.
As you go up the food chain in tuners do you typically get;
1. Better sound and no significant difference in fm reception.
2. Better sound and more staticky fringe stations.
3. Better sound and more stations that come in strong and clear enough to be enjoyable.

Other thing, if the answer is 3, anyone got a favorite tuner at a good price to performance ratio?

If you are looking for a tuner right out of the box that may be considered an audiophile piece, I vote for the Marantz ST-17, often discounted down to $395. It is better than the current flock of MDs.
