    Default Which tuner ?? Advice needed please guys .

    Ok so I've been on the hunt for a tuner , I am buying it for sound quality 1st off then build quality.
    So far I've narrowed it down to and in no particular order .
    Audiolab 8000t
    Nakamichi st-7
    Yamaha t-2
    Revox B261
    I'd love an ion fmt-1 to go with my other ion stuff but I was skint when the last one came up for auction so I've just about given up on one .
    I currently use a Yamaha T-700 which I do enjoy but perhaps there's better !!
    Advice much appreciated.
    Budget is around £200-£250

    Hi Rexton , I've been watching several 8000T's and I'm beginning to think that's what I'll end up getting.
    Cheers

    Another good tuner is the B&O Beomaster 5000, that's if you can find one, vintage, but one of the best out there, will never sell mine.

    The Pioneer TX9100 is another good vintage tuner.

    The Beomaster 5000 was a FM only tuner from the late sixties. I believe the BBC used them as a reference tuner and Adam aka Beobloke from this very forum also has one.
