Review 1 of 9

Price Paid:  $350.00 from HiFi store in Singapore

Summary:
I have this tuner for more than 6 months now. I live in a high rise condo which does not allow outdoor antena so I connet it to my cable tv outlet and receive very good signals and very sweet sound. Every stations have the same signal strength and clear. Now just wondering what it will give me if I had a real outdoor FM antena. It's worth every penny and I intend to keep it for a long long time.

Strengths:
Great reception, clean and clear sound, great looking too!

Weaknesses:
No auto switch for antenas

Review 2 of 9

Summary:
I have a Onkyo Integra T-4017 which dates from the mid to late 1980s. It is a very basic digital tuner with 16 presets. I found a T-4711 demo real cheap and decided to "upgrade" to a tuner I heard lots of good things about.
While the T-4711 does sound good it did not sound as good as the T-4017 in a direct comparison in my system using same type of antenna and interconnects. They were both on in separate equal inputs on the preamp.
The reception on the T-4017 was a lot better, not that the T-4711 is bad.
Anyway, I kept the T-4017 even though it does not have all the features. Sound and reception matters most. I was able to sell the T-4711 at a profit equal to what I paid for the T-4017 used. So not a bad experience in the end; I got a free tuner out of it.

Strengths:
Lots of features and a remote.

Weaknesses:
Need remote to use some features. No button on tuner.

Review 3 of 9

Price Paid:  $300.00

Summary:
I have bee using NAD C 440 tuner more than one year. This tuner is far better. It is great pitty Onkyo does not produce it any more, because it is one of the best tuners available. If you can grab one, you won't be disappointed.
Exceptional separation, clear and dynamic sound with tight and deep bass. Sounds almost like CD player.

Strengths:
Clear, dynamic and involving sound. Nice reception of weak staions.

Weaknesses:
None

Review 5 of 9

Summary:
Overall, this is a great tuner! I paid under $300 and I'm sure it doesn't match the audiophile ueber-tuners out there but it does a great job. you have many options of how to try to graba signal, including offset tuning steps. Afaik, though, Onkyo no longer makes this model so you may need to look around for it a bit.

One of my chief complaints is the antenna connections on the back, both of which are 75ohm push-on style female jacks. the quality of them doesn't seem to be very good, and my push-on male connector from an amplified antenna doesn't fit them very well at all. I don't see why Onkyo couldn't spend a dollar extra, and put in actual female 75ohm screw thread jacks. I'm considering trying to put my own on if it won't destroy the unit. I'll wait for the warranty to expire. :)

And on that note, why only an antenna switch on the remote control? Whose bright idea was that? Did I misread the manual?

Anyone else less than thrilled with the antenna connections?

Strengths:
nice feel on the controls, bright display, great bang for the buck, signal strength meter toggles between graphical and numerical(dB) output

Weaknesses:
low-quality antenna connections, can only switch antennas from remote

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
