78 is the bomb,great sound and seperation,owned one and miss it today,the 80 is the same beats except the digital readout and presets.Most of the rest are fairly good I would go for a 77 or if you want AM too a 75.Only beacuse the 78 and 80 tuners are fetching big bucks like all the other 70s MAC gear.Cheers.
McIntosh transistor tuners....any good ones?
With McIntosh tuners..seems that people mainly speak of the 67,71 and 78 tube models.
Many people seem the think that other brands of transistor tuners have merit...Yamaha CT-7000, T-1, T-2..etc., and other models from Magnum, Fanfare, Sansui...and others.
So,...did McIntosh tuners that were solid state just blow it design-wise...or are they just underated/appreciated?
