Title: Trade Bait: Marantz PM-500

60 wpc @ 8 ohms.

Everything seems to work. No DC leakage.

I'm interested in any of the following:

An equalizer. Something cool with many bands.

A cassette deck. I really don't know what sort of offers I'll get in this category. My expectations are not high. 

A tube buffer. Hmm, I just want to try it. It could be a gateway drug.

Headphones, but, I doubt that this amp is worth a set of cans that would entice me.

PM me with what you've got.

SD - you clean this baby up and put it on epay and I think you will get at least 4x what you paid.  You clean it up and replace the electrolytic caps and you can ask for $175 or $200. You get the optional wood side panels and I am buying it from you.   :P

The lighting in that part of the basement is lousy. It cleaned up rather well. I REALLY should have done before and after photos.

I really should just pull the board out and put new caps on it, then put it on ePay. There's one on there now that I'm tracking.
