[JRC] comparisons...

[N8GMB@aol.com]

Dear Folks,

The ergonomics of the JRC's are legendary, but their sound was always 
utilitarian, mufffled, and I personally had the 515 and 525 and I hated their sound.

 The 535 was better but the Drake's ran circles around them sound wise.  
Performance was the same as the Drake line, which I still have as a R8B and also 
the Ten-Tec RX-340 which is fantastic and the best of the tabletop under 
$5000.00 group.  It probably is the best in any price group as the government is not 
concerned with SWL and sound quality.  

The 545 is the best receiver under $2000.0, while the the Drake R8B is the 
best under $1500.00 in over all performance.

Dxing is one thing, listening quality is a whole new ball game for program 
listeners like myself...
