Good, mid-price tuner?


My old Tandberg tuner continues to go out of alignment so i removed it from my system, but the wife still wants FM (I guess i wouldn't mind it either). What is a good option for current or recent production tuners? I'd like to avoid older tuners even though I know how good they can be. Not looking to spend thousands of dollars.

Can the Tivoli table radio be used as a stereo tuner through its rec out connection, or is it just mono (it says you can record in mono)?

Thanks.

I had an Audiolab 8000T at one time. It was a great tuner. I offered both FM & AM bands. I've seen them inn very limited quantities here for around $550 used. This is a class act tuner with plenty of features too. IMHO
