Remote, for me, is not an option - but a necessity. Pretty much rules out analog, eh? Perhaps there may even be such a thing, I don't know. But I'm fine with digital. Just wondering what are the best tuners with this feature.
Where is your computer right now?
Why?But I prefer tuners.
Why?
Have you ever hooked up a computer to a system and used it for a source?
This station is a very small independent and not much power. They cater to all black music and artist....mostly. Depending on the DJ they even spin records and 45s. Each volunteer DJ has their specialty R&B Jazz Blues Gospel and so forth. KPOO http://www.kpoo.com/I have listened to radio via my computer many times. I have a Schiit Modi 2 and Magni 2 beside my chair for headphones. I have a wire run from the Magni to the main system, and listen to files, too. The main system also has ROKU with Pandora and other music sources, including many internet radio stations. I get my jazz radio from a Denmark station.
But I like the sound of a good tuner. It's not that I'm unaware of internet choices. Music sounds better OTA to me, if you have a good station or two with formats you like. I spend most my tuner time on two local stations, one classical college station and one rock station. I wish we had a jazz station, but there is another college station that sometimes plays jazz.

Can you put a tuner by your chair also and just run the RCAs to the system?
Yamaha TX-1000 is a great remote controlled tuner. Excellent sound quality. Citation 23 is also remote controlled and may be a bit better for long distance, haven't compared the two, different rooms/floors in the crib.
Just got a Sony XDR-F1HD. Great sound, not much of a looker. Mine is modded.
