Hey Rmahai, if you have a chance post at fmtunerinfo.com what info you have on the Kenwood L-03t. They are always asking for info on tuners they haven't heard.

In no particular order:

1/ McIntosh MR71
2/ Tandberg 3001
3/ The original Sequerra FM tuner
4/ Luxman T110
5/ Pioneer TX9100
6/ Marantz 10b
7/ Marantz 150
8/ Marantz 120
9/ Magnum Dynalab tube hybrid units
10/ Meridian T101 (not very sensitive but beautifully musical on a good signal)
I have owned quite a few tuners at different times. For obvious reasons of expense. (this hobby can financially break one so easily but how much fun it is to go broke
this way.)

The following is a short list of some of the best tuners I have owned over the past 15 years. I have had several more but some escape my memory after all these years. The 10 B was the smoothest of all and along with the Sequerra ran very hot. Overall I would have to say that these were the best sounding tuners followed by the Naim gear which was also quite good. The best cheapo tuner I have ever used was a Leak Troughline 2 with a Fisher MPX 100 stereo decoder
followed by a Pioneer TX-9100 that I paid about 80 bucks
for. It also ran pretty hot though.
