[alexkerhead]

Seeing as the yamaha people and technics people have already started threads about brand pics, we need to start a Marantz thread.

I will start with my babies.

Hi,
I am glad to see someone has enjoyed my pics. That is my 1060 and my Realistic Tuner. :thmbsp: Another pic from my room, Marantz 2250b.

Thanks for posting,

Here are a few pics of a 2238B I recently sold. I have more pic's I'll be adding soon!

[johndoe3]

I used to swap and sell off the Marantz pieces that I would run into simply because they were in such high demand. Everyone wanted them.
With the prices of these old units climbing ever so high, I decided to start keeping some of them! :D

Alrighty.

[johndoe3]

A couple of more.

[alexkerhead]

Excellent pics everyone, we only have 18 pages to go before we catch the yamaha folks. :yes:

Here are some of my Marantz. Missing are the 6300 TT, 125 Tuner, 2250B and 2015 Receivers. I'll have to take pics of those.

[mhardy6647]

umm... not too many Marantzes, but I do have a few.
Here's a not-so-hot photo of my 2215B, found at our town dump. Needed only new fuse-style lamps, although the shaft to the speaker selector switch is broken :-(

[mhardy6647]

Oh, yah, the 8B! I don't own one, but I just re-habbed one for a local fellow. One of the best-sounding amplifiers I have EVER heard. Gotta be the sine qua non for the Klipsch Cornwalls IMNSHO.

Here's the underpinnings "before":

And "after":

A beautifully designed, engineered, and built amplifier.

[schwarcw]

I have a few pieces. Here is my 150 tuner, 3800 preamp and 510M amp. And my 6100 TT and 5025B tape deck. I also have a 2230 receiver, 6300 TT and 104 tuner.

Got a couple of pieces, maybe not TOTL but I like the looks of them.

170DC,3250, 2100 (like the big meters on the 170DC)
1530 (nice blue face)
2225 (blackout face is cool)

Great job on the rehab, it looks great! :thmbsp:

I absolutely love my 8B. It's my now main amplifier. I am using the pre-outs of the 2235 to drive it until I get my Foreplay III delivered and built.

[mhardy6647]

Aftr hearing the one shown above on my Cornies, I seriously want one. It is a magnificent piece of hardware.

[alexkerhead]

I fixed my 5120 up to near mint shape and here are a couple of nice pics of it.

Howzit sound?

Man, I don't know. Are you supposed to use this stuff? It's over 40 and 50 years old. It's got tubes? No way it could sound as good as the stuff they make today.

Here's the rest of it. I don't have a lot but what I do have is all very nice. Sorry about the flash on the 10B. Nothing ruins a pretty face plate more than an ugly flash.

That stuff probably sounds 2 to 3 times nicer than a majority of stuff made these days.
Not as loud, but audiophiles judge audio reproduction, not audio volume. Although if you use that on some khorns, it would hurt your ears for sure.

Vintage is better price to price, it would take $25,000 to compete with the quality those marantz monoblocks put out when they are up to spec and recapped.

I agree! I was joshing. Most of my Marantz stuff has been serviced at Audio Classics to bring it up to snuff without messing with the overall appearance or circuit.
