Default Which tuner for Shindo system?
Right now I'm really loving my LPs and digital collection...but occasionally I want to listen to some FM radio.

What tuners do you use with your Shindo gear? I'm considering the McIntosh MR78 based on reading fmtunerinfo.com but I'm open to suggestions.

I'd get a Sonos and have access to radio stations the world over.

I'm listening WNCW from North Carolina right now sitting here in cold so cal.

I have a magnum dynalab 102t tube tuner that I have been very happy with. I also had a dac installed which uses to tube output stage of the tuner. With a good radio station the sound quality of the tuner is as good as my digital. unfortunately most stations are very compressed these days.

I (shamelessly) have 3 systems with Shindo gear, and I use older/vintage tuners in each - an Accuphase T-106, a Kenwood L-01T, and a Marantz 2130. And I rotate in two other tuners from time to time - a Yamaha CT-7000 and a Uher EG 750.

Not to high jack the topic, but WNCW is a great radio station!

Rotel 990BX I bought new in 98. Not vintage but still suprises at how good it is. Thought about upgrading once but I really only listen to mainly one station - WRTI Temple University for Jazz. I guess internet radio will be the way to go from here.

I agree with the Sonos idea.
