In Reply to: Luxman T-117 or Sansui TU-717 for $300? posted by ancient tones on April 30, 2025 at 05:57:12:
Even though the FM Tuner Info site (link below) has a lot of DXing, there are always reviews of tuners, and I know it has plenty of TU-717 reviews.
I have owned the Sansui, but I can not recall which Luxman I had.
The Luxman is indeed on the shootouts page on the linked page below, and the reviewer was shocked at its comparison to the reference tuner.
While I may (or may not) have had that particular Luxman, I do recall liking my Lux better than the Sansui.
Not sure in modern dollars if it is a fair price. I would think the Luxman for $300 might be a fair price. It seems like anything today is "expensive". The Luxman was certainly more expensive when new than the Sansui (not that it means a whole lot).
