Tuners?

Analog Tuners will there always be programming?

With the advent of HD and internet radio, will the analog tuners ever become obsolete?
 
Fisher KM-60
Marantz 20B
Carver TX11

If anyone feels they have an extra Marantz 10B, 120, or 150 donations are greatly appreciated.

Ozzie, I've had a few AF-6 Dynaco tuners and the AM on every one of them was strictly local station pickup capable only. C.C. Crane makes some interesting AM antennas. I've never tried them as I have a couple of AM tuners that are good DX'ers with their internal antennas.
 
A tuner is an adjustable device which passes one radio frequency, or band of frequencies, and excludes others, by using electrical resonance. A tuner performs the process of selecting the desired signal but it's output is not directly usable and must be sent to another device. Typically tuners are sold with built-in audio amplifiers, loudspeakers, and/or a video display to form a radio receiver or television set. Tuners can be either stereo or mono, and are available for TV, FM, AM, and other types of radio signals.
 
long story short one of the guys at work who lives afew blocks down went to a house party and saw it on a guys shelf. Told the guy about me and it came back to me!!!
my wife is sooooo happy couse now there are only two whiney babies in the house!
 
Hello,

here´s a picture of my favorite Tuner:

it´s an Onyko Integra T-411(4011/Europe) from 1974 (xxx-rare).
The price for a new one was 200,000Yen in 1974,...not cheap!
I found only a few informations of this tuner in the internet (japanese webside)




best regards

Timo, from Germany
 
Here is my actual list of tuners:

DENON TU-850 (with PMA-830)
KENWOOD KT-8155
PIONEER TX-7800
HITACHI FT-8000 (with HA-8700)
YAMAHA T-7 this one with BIG problems. Does anybody of you guys have a SM with good scans for this beauty?

LIX
 
Currently, my collection includes:

Fisher FM-1000 (tube)
Fisher TFM-300 (hybrid tube/solid state)
McIntosh MR67 (tube)
2 McIntosh MR65Bs (tube)
McIntosh MR7082 (solid state)
Pioneer TX-130 (solid state)
Pioneer TX-410 (solid state)
 
Thought I'd add mine to the mix.

Revox B760 (recent addition to the main stereo)
Magnum Dynalab FT-11 (currently in office w/headphone amp)
NAD 4225 (garage stereo)

The great thing about the Revox is it has a headphone jack w/volume control.
 
Now Playing: Nikko FAM-800

I replaced the incandescent lighting behind the dial and meters with a strip of LED's. Near perfect fit!

I have settled on Revox and worked up the line to the B 260-S.

I happy with it and look no further.

I have sold all the others.

Next is maybe getting a bigger and higher antenna.
