The Fisher KM-60 is killer. Way under the radar still, even though the prices on a nice aligned and slightly modded one is running $200-$300 now. I know a Fisher tech here locally and he likes the KM-60 more then any other Fisher tuner, MAC tuner or dare I say Marantz tuner. He has a KM-60 in his main system for "proof". Just one mans opinion of course, bet he has heard and worked on all the old tuners.
The KM-60 is the best tuner I have right now for SOUND QUALITY, but its not quite as quiet or has the RF rejection of my modded Sansui TU-717 or Magnum Dynalab FT-10. The more filters in those units help, but man the top end treble and mids on the KM-60 just stomp the others. Just so "pure" and unmolested sounding compared to the somewhat "processed" and by comparison very slight "unmusical sound" the solid state tuners I have put out (I have a very nice Pioneer TX-7500 too). That is, as compared to the KM-60.

Joel
