i agree with Timo (the first entry). If you like the B&K TS-108 you have to like the Fanfare FT-1. It is the same tuner as the B&K with remote and balanced outputs added. Look at them side by side. They are both made in Buffalo, NY. The TS-108 was made in 1990-91 and the Fanfare FT-1 was made from 1992 on. The FT-1a came on at 1995 I think. It was a modified FT-1.
I must say the the Accuphase T-109V is one of the best tuners in the world, well deserving a place in the top ten.
Auditioning a live broadcasting concert from this tuner is always an enthralling experience, away better then some CD players in the market
Of the tuners I've owned the following are my top 4 in descending order. Still have all but the Sony, which I wish I still had.

Day Sequerra Studio (scope model)
Sansui TU-9900
Magnum Dynalab MD-108
Sony 5000FW
Of the ones you mentioned I own a Nikko Gamma 1. It crushes my mint Sansui 5900. I wouldn't have believed it but its true the Sansui just a couple of steps down from the vaunted 9900.
