Well, I suppose any new one too, although that should be a minimal chance.
Does it need alignment or other service?
Previously living in areas with multiple good station choices (meaning for my favored music) I've gone through a number of the more popular models. For awhile I had a Sansui TU 9900 which was known for signal quality. Mine was near perfect cosmetically but the sonics were only average. Similar story with a Yamaha T-9. Only later did I realize it could have been misalignment rather than unwarranted reputation for those.
Buying a respected model at the right price and having it serviced by a qualified tuner tech may be the answer.
