[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 3016985, member: 561023"] Yup. There's a huge difference in performance between a tuner rated for 8dBf and 13dBf. Kenwood's CR2 tuner section has an FM mono sensitivity of 9.3dBf and there isn't any local station that I want to listen to that I can't pick up clearly and quite a few from out of town that I can listen to as well. Anything from that sensitivity (the 9.3 like Kenwood) and better is going to give more than satisfactory performance. I'd steer clear of the units with worse (from 10-13dBf) numbers if tuner strength is important to you. [/QUOTE]
