How is it ? that a tuner smokes the table ???


"(cats out of the bag)"

my friends dynalab 109 tube tuner blows away his turntable front end that costs 4X as much!!!

Can any one explain how a cd or analog turntable at a radio station gets played and sent thru the air and gets
reconstructed at the tuner is the single highest quality
source in hiend two channel reproduction !

that blows me away and I can understand it ?

IMHO tuner highest source than turntable than CD in that order.

I wish somebody told me this before I spend so much money !

what sayest thou ?

I'm fortunate to receive a 24 hour jazz station out of Toronto (CJRT, 91.1).

On both of my Mac tuners (71 and 77) the sonics are clearly superior to any of the digital machines here.

But not the vinyl front ends.

When someone is really interested in a good sounding Tuner, no doubt, the latest Dynalab 109 is the way to go.<<

Maybe for sensitivity and selectivity but not sonics.

I sell Magnum Dynalab but clearly prefer my Mac 71 and 77.

No contest

And the price difference between a 71 or 77 in good condition and the MD 109 is staggering.

YMMV
>>Although the macintosh and scott tuners sound good they are just not in this league<<

I agree.

The Mac 67,71,77, and 78 smoke the 109.

Don't forget that radio stations play only the very best sources, too.<<

That is plain and simple BS.
>>but it is surprising to me because many analog front ends here and world wide easily surpasses the $10,000.00 mark and still is unable to match the tuner for sound.<<

I can assemble a dozen analog front ends for less than $10K that will blast the 109 into embarrassment.

Dealer disclaimer: I sell the 109
