I received my Hero's and with them a new Audio Advisor catalog. Looks like Marantz has a new AM/FM/XM home tuner, Model ST7001, $499.95.
Interesting....

They have had an XM capable tuner out since last year. I've heard the older version and it's real nice.CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

Looks very nice. It would be great if they built an XM only (no FM/AM) version.
I really wanted to purchase the Polk tuner, but when I finally got to audition one, the cheap plastic face and buttons really turned me off. Reminded me of one of those $29 DVD players at Walmart. -
the price on the Polk XM tuner has been dropped several times since it came out.. should be pretty reasonable these days. Audiophile quality sound too.PolkFest 2012, who's going>?
