I am trying to find out which rack mount tuner on the market today is best suited for PSG. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You, Marty

Korg DTR-1 or it's newest version DTR-2000.

I think the DTR-1 is the best of the two!!

I had a DTR2000 and only sold it as I bought a Peterson VS-II. But other than the Peterson VS-II the DTR-2000 was the most accurate tuner I've had. I sold it to another steeler that installed it in his rack and he thinks it's great.

The DTR2000 was supposed to fix some problems that the older DTR 1 and 2 had. I don't know what the issues were but that was one of the Korg selling points for the DTR2000.

Korg DTR1000 is worth a look too... exceptional tuner.

I liked the Korg DTR-1. I now have a DTR1000 but don't like the slanted plastic front panel. I found it used, almost new on eBay for $120. Wanted a DTR2000 but price and unneeded features headed me off.

Sabine makes a clone of the DTR-1 for less but I had one and felt it was crap. I had the earlier 1601 but in a dark environment, the front panel lettering can't be read.

The Harmony Central website user equipment reviews give the Behringer bad marks. I almost bought one until I read the reviews.
