Merry Marantz Christmas to me
« on: December 20, 2010, 06:45:28 PM »
Just picked up this very clean Marantz stack from AKer Jackgiff.....my Christmas present to myself.

3800 preamp, 115B tuner, 510M amp

Have them driving Dahlquist DQ-10s and the sound is definitely vintage Hi-Fidelity.   ;D

Yes it is.  Bought it new in about 1976.

Looks great. I bet it sounds better.
I am confident that an SL-1200 is capable of outperforming turntables of much higher expense with minor modification.
