Okay, so I sorta goofed up and bought an sacd player this week instead of a tuner (not good cause I still only have 1 sacd to listen to). I couldn't pass up a good deal though, so here I am and now i'll have more time to do a bit of research regarding what to look for in a good tuner. I've been following ebay for a while now looking for tuners, and this particular model caught my eye:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5869513115&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWA:IT&rd=1
Its cheap (very cheap) and appears to be of good quality. I looked up the specs somewhere and they looked very good, excellent seperation, snr and dynamic range. I've been a fan of digital tuners in the past, for sake of ease, but all you guys seem to prefer much older analog tuners. Honestly, I've never heard a "good" tuner before, and most of my friends think i'm silly for actually buying a tuner, just a component tuner, not being part of a integrated amp/mp3 player.
I'd like very much to replace the my early 90's pioneer integrated amp w/tuner in favor of something much better. I have gotten good results with it *sometimes but generally it is relatively mediocre on both clarity and reception.
Any suggestions? I really have no idea what i'm looking for other than something preferably under $50.
