Reports[edit]

  • Stereo 1/1998: (Test of the system with PM-17, St-17 and CD-17 M): Very good, 2 stars.
  • Stereoplay 4/1998: Sound/reception rating: good, 18 points (from mid 1998 = 36 points), price/performance: good. "Noble tuner with richly equipped output side but rather modest high frequency section. Sounds overall balanced - unspectacular." (Ibid., p.145)
