Here in Boston, we’re blessed with a number of very good classical FM radio stations. I had for a long time a Magnum Dynalab Etude tuner and quite regularly was listening “live” broadcasts and many other beauties of urban FM life. I had a few t...

Keeping harassing different people bout the most interesting options for multiplex decoder for my Rohde & Schwarz EU-6201 I was wondering if it makes sense to me to use the Rohde. It is a very good tuner but it is not necessary result in better s...

Bumping up this very old thread but I bought a Yamaha T-2 in October via that well-known auction site here in the UK. Even through my humble system I can tell it is a cut above all previous tuners I have heard. Admittedly I have never had anything re...

David, thanks for clearing the things up. The 150kHz as a wide mode only in poor tuners. In US the 150kHz would not cover even the deviation range. This is one of many reasons why many tuner sounds like crap. The conventional standard, if quality of ...

Maybe TU-1x is different altogether and I did not try yamaha but every other SS tuner (kenwood, pionneer , nakamichi )sounded like you described -cotton ball ,pork fat salt and pepper . Because of that I gave up on SS tuners. The best tuner I heard s...

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...

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...

Hi again Romy. I have never tried many of the 'super tuners' such as the Sansui TU-X1, Accuphase T-1100, Yamaha CT-7000 etc so I have no idea how this newer BW Broadcast unit would compare with them. Luckily the BBC still broadcast some very good qua...

I am in the process of setting up a DAW to record fm broadcast. Recently I installed a M-Audio 2496 DAC in a computer to do the recording. I am using a Yamaha T-85 tuner. Prior to routing the i.c. cables through the DAC I had no background noise f...

Jim thanks for the review and for the tip. I was not familiar with the T-2 model before. I is really interesting what this tuner dose and how unexpectedly musically it performs. I listened today a number of broadcasts from the CDs that I am well fami...

I had one for about a week and was not happy. Switched to a Kenwood KT1100.
Here an honest review that matches my experience. Bottom line is that on stuff this old, the individual buyer will determine the price, not the market.

After hearing what a well designed FM station recording setup could deliver I became a believer. The question was what would be the cost involved to implement a good setup. After doing some research on the cost of Romy's components to capture fm br...

Thanks, Gordon
I have absolutely no desire to undertake any DIY efforts for MiniMe amp. The amp that I want will be boxed, with bells and whistles, binding posts and matters. There were plenty of top of the line Yamahas, Sonys and Sansuis were...

It's quite a marvel from what I can tell now. The overall sound is somewhat on the darker side but the preamp is still breaking in (although I gave it 30h benchtop burn in with the frybaby track). I also suppose it reveals the Dannoy and the room int...

Can anyone shed some light on this problem? I am using a Yamaha T-85 stereo tuner. It has meters to show the strength of signal quality. Yesterday after installing a Terk indoor antenna and properly positioning the antenna I was able to get a ...

I’m involved now in a VERY interesting project that leads me to ask a strange question: did anyone ever research the subject of those Hi-Fi Mini Systems? What I need is a small source of FM and CD in a one small “comfy” box. I do not need that CD to ...

Since FM long has been my primary at the most enjoyable audio source I decided to push the envelope a little further. The Rohde & Schwarz tuner bind via wide-bandwidth output with modified Yamaha T-85 MPX decoder sounds identical to Sansui TU-X1....

Here is a good Rohde & Schwarz EU-6201 illustration. This is a station not truly DX but a station that is in very difficult reception environment. I never was able to get it clear from my location. Even the DX champion Yamaha T-85 in its ultra na...

[quote user="Gregm"]This would involve some researching... thus introduing (possibly unecessary) complexity: look for a Sony or Yamaha or Sansui "power j-fet" amp. These were produced s/where in the mid '70s and should be very cheap now. I have ...

Well, it is hard to express my excitement about what the new FM99.5 All-Classical is turning into. It looks like the programming is settling down and my concerns about to become too popular turn out to be wrong. The programs are very good, the ...

Inspired in part by Romy's results and excitement with FM, I wanted to try.
Restricted by apartment living, I had difficulties achieving a quiet stereo signal.
I was also concerned about the a/d conversion for d...

A guy I spoke a few days back told me that if he lived in Boston and had the quality of FM programming as good as we have in my city then he would have peruse the best FM receivers possible to get. I was laughing replying that it was exactly what I a...

I am not a person who understands a lot about tuners. I understand a lot about sound and in the tuner world I am just a user of the things. If I need comprehension of the things I ask questions, I have very limited ability to extrapolate the sound of...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] As now the Rohde & Schwarz + T-85 sound just wonderful and I would not look for other Multiplex Decoders with exception of a future idea to built one even better (with L de-emphasize) INSEDE of the Rohde & Sc...
