On the line stage I currently use I haven't got around to fitting a selector switch so I really do have to change the cabling arrangement each time I want to listen to a different source. As I only really use 2 sources and occasionally an fm tuner wi...

I think, it is useful to go back a little bit in time, when talking about Tuners. In the 50‘ and 60‘s records (and the their Equipment) was VERY expensive, it was a Hobby for the upperclass. For general public the Tuner was the main unit to...

[quote user="Dave_at_BW_Broadcast"]The development team like to be a little secretive when it comes to the nitty gritty of the design of the tuner. A lot of it is proprietary and follows from extensive R'nD time and cost.
I think these best w...

Sometimes ago I received an email from a NY guy that I know:
“I borrowed a friend's Sansui TU-X1 and just like I heard them at your place it sounds fantastic! What is it about this tuner? There is such an ease to the presentation and no distra...

Well, Doug
My attraction to HD Radio statred from the moment when I learned that my WGBH does one less step of analog compression for DH1 compare to FM and do not use limiting-out at HD2 for live-to-tape recordings. Very promising, isn’t it?&n...

Adrian,
I am not sure if I understand you correctly but if I do then I did NOT experience this effect with both of my TU-X1. Does is exist only with one station? If yes, then the station might possess signal in some odd way…
You might ...

If not working on the HF to get the ambiance, which probably would be the "moronic" way to accomplish it, then is it some lower bass? There's a hint on Romy's comment about his new tuner having better low bass response than any other source. Perhaps ...

All the best to everyone in 2017! I finally got my Mac MR 67 tuner back from the shop so that means no Bose Radio for me in 2017 I hope....

Adrian, was your PP1500 noise present ONLY in the phono section or across the sources/components? My tuner and digital work like a wonder, only phono picks the noise. I read your earlier description and my noise is not high pitched but rather upper b...

That is very interesting post Romy. I noticed that I have changed a lot of CD-Players and Dacs over the years until I found the sound I wanted, but only had to change my Tuner once, and my analog playback has been the same for years and years n...

I use now a voltage divider sitting at the Melquiades’s inputs (The older, ‘better” version of EVS attenuators). As the sources I use whatever: CD, LP, Tuner…. it does not mater. Currently I’m working (or tying to force myself working) on an interest...

Hi all, I am new to this forum and am in UK. Having browsed this forum for a few days I have decided to join.I have a Yamaha CT7000 FM tuner and was wondering how much it is worth. The unit is immaculate, including the teak casework.RgdsMike...

Yes, with 192kHz A/D they have enough room they do multiplexing. Since they are at 192kHz then 48 kHz of output sound reasonable, I hope it is 20bit. Howe be, the key in here is not the tuner but rather a recording endearment and your desire to commi...

Figuring out how to switch REL Precedent’s IM bandwidth to more suitable for Stereo operation I was wondering about something else. The 250kHz window though which the REL Precedent looks to the FM band is might be fine for DXing or having good select...

You would not need any “special” A/D converters, as I did impose any demeaned to “quality”. All you that you need to have a more or less reasonable tuner, a good antenna, strong reception and an ability to write it up at 24/44 or 24/88/ Also it is ne...

After dealing with my tuner pick digital noise from my AD and DA, and particularly from Lavry DAC, I loaded Lavry with quite substantial amount of ferrite anti-RF filters:

Dear Romy,
My tests showed 2 separate types of noise/interference being caused when TU-X1 & DA-924 were switched ON while the TU-X1 was set to OUTPUT FM: -
First noise/interference, the Sansui TU-X1 was passing an AM broadcast on VARIABLE OUTPU...

When I said that AM sounded in the Sansui as good as FM in other tuners, I meant just that, not that AM was as good as FM. FM in the Sansui is in a league of its own, but its AM is so good too that sounds better than most FM tuners or portable radios...

Zako, the first order of business is programming; ie, what sort of music could you enjoy, best case? In my own situation, the quality of the tuner is the least of my problems!I am getting to the point where I wonder if computer-sourced program might...

I have noted before that the quietly of sound that I’m getting from FM broadcast, or even from the regular FM transmissions of the regular CDs, is insultingly beautiful and not really compatible with Sound that I get out of my CD and LPs.
