Marantz AV 10 installed: - Early Review and Impressions.

Back in the days when I listened to a lot of FM, I preferred the Revox tuners to the Quad ones....
But both were excellent.... There is a tuner in my current AVR... sitting unused!

The Revox FM tuner was also a great FM tuner. My friend Phil had one for a while. For some reason it gave trouble and he ended up getting rid of it.

Both excellent performers but opposite ends of the aesthetic spectrum - the Quad simple, compact, minimal, the Revox a cornucopia of buttons knobs and dials...a piece of pro studio aesthetic.

I miss that tuner, but I hadn't used it in a few years when I sold it on to someone who would appreciate it!

I only listen to FM at home for one thing. And that is to listen to Paul Allen and Pete Bercich call the Viking games. I have the radio on and mute the TV announcers. There is usually a delay, one way or the other, meaning could be 2 seconds early or late or even longer. But I am used to that. They are the best announcers since Madden and Summerall.
