Wmse

WMSE in Milwaukee, 91.7fm, Planet Prog show, on a 1961 high end Motorola console. ( in mono, I still need to find a fm demultiplexer for it), sounds great as long as I leave the spring reverb turned off.

"Crazy About the Blues" on KCSM in San Mateo, CA per my Friday night routine but lying in bed after a 13 hour work day.

The bedroom system has a Sony ST-J75 completely worked over by RadioX. I've yet to swap the op amp although Mike put in a socket and added a bigger supply cap for me.

Listening to KBEM/88.5 (Jazz) in Minneapolis from about 62 miles away through my Yamaha T-85 (recently repaired and aligned by dr*audio). My other tuners can barely grab this station in mono, but the T-85, with an Ammons board, is able to grab it in stereo most days.

I love my tuner i wish there was a decent radio station around here.

And, that TU9900 responds well to a recap, alignmennt and a few other upgrades when you are ready to have it sing even better

Classical this morning on WRTI, 90.1 through the Accuphase T-106. Great music. Wish I could afford the Bill Ammons mod'd T-108 that's on Audiogong (eBay?) at the moment.

yes, the tu9900 is an all-time killer tuna, w/the looks to match.

re: t108's, i'd rather have a slew of tuna over the t108, (including the tu9900), regardless of price. but a modded t108 might be worth pursuing. however, the one on ebay is a scam, and neither it nor the one on a-gon presently says anything about mods... and once you get to the higher prices, it's the accuphase t1100 that gets my interest.

Have you tried many Accuphase tuners Doug? Wonder if the T-100 ever comes up at a reasonable price or if the early digitals like the T-103 and T-104 are worth trying?
