What I mean is, instead of the expected component tuner, which is only a tuner for AM, FM, SW, etc, are you using a receiver, radio, all-in-one, car stereo, ham gear, or other to capture those radio signals in your home system?
I took out from my home system the last tuner I bought, a used NAD, as it was noisy. I replaced it with a Proton 300 table radio, using a Grundig AN-200 antenna. FM is perfect, just perfect, tuning wise and SQ wise. Perhaps the best part is that the thing cost me ten bucks.
I have also used a Luxman R-5030 as a tuner, as the tuner section was very good, but the amp section needed TLC.
I tried my old Pioneer KP-500 car stereo, which has a great tuner, but turn-on and turn-off transient noises scotched that idea.
