I use AKSONIC BRX01 with my Marantz. Works great for my needs. I got it on Amazon for less than $100

I bought a 2285 receiver and Imperial 7 speakers new in 1977. I still have them but like my JBL 4311 better. I also have a pair of Klipsch KG4s that do not sound as good as the Marantz to me.

Thanks for the advice. I will be doing everything suggested.

I started listening to my kg4's again. I'm using my Marantz 2285 for power. After listening to them for a few hours a day for a week they started sounding not clear, distorted. The horns sound ok but the drivers are off. Any ideas? Is it time for new crossovers?

I'm thinking about getting a pair of Wharfedale w70ds. Where do they fit in the speaker world? Opinions please

Thinking about getting a pair of Wharfedale w70d. There is a pair for sale near me. What are your opinions on them. Where do they fall in the speaker world?

Check out member Robisme.

Check with Robisme.

The biggest question is how do they sound? Can you compare them with any of your other speakers? Looks like a great side project for you.

I have had Robisme do some repairs very satisfied with the results, check him out

My 2285 was tested at 105 watts

I have a Marantz 2285 with a Duel CS 704. I use a pair of Imperial 7s and JBL 4311s. I like the sound of the Imperial 7s and the JBLs are very similar in sound but a few steps up in sound quality. What ever you do try to listen to the speakers before buying.

I have a 2285 and use Marantz Imperial 7 or JBL 4311 speakers.

I have a 2285 & 2265b. The 2285 is much better sounding.

In my garage I'm using a Marantz 2265b with a pair of Klipsch Kg4s and a pair of Marantz Imperial 7s. For me the Kg4s sound muddy with no depth and very underwhelming compaired to the Imperial 7s. So for me I would go with anything other then Kg4s.
