The point is that now is 30-40 years after the best commercial tuners were made and nowadays there are a lot of ability to make the tuner WAY better then when it use to be. I do not think that FM is very lucrative direction for companies to be nowadays but look at the 47 Lab – they said “fuck it” and released a new tuner. I feel that juts because any company that make tuners nowadays are NOT target to make a lot of money then the quality of the today’s tuners might be very high. Today there are semiconductors’ with tremendous gain and ultra-low noise, today decoders can take advantage about all post detection filtrations of the HF noised that did not exist 30 years back.   What I would be very welcome if some have balls to build into MPX decoder some like of dymick expender – who knows it might work very well…

I guess, building good tuners needs some real knowledge, engineered knowledge perhaps. Look inside your R&S, do you think, that someone WANTS to do that again?

Never.

This was only available because it was ordered from professional studios and money wasn't really a problem.High end today means, cheap stuff in nice looking boxes and that's it.

I think, I understand but your "good sounding..." is like asking for the right lottery numbers...Building Turntables for example, much more fun for those with having no idea. 
And they will be sold.But you know that already. :=)
