  • it was mentioned in a music forum about 10 years ago..and i forgot to add it to my wish list, when i'm record shopping again..
    That "Jimmy McGriff..Soul Sugar" is one swinging Lp.
    The cover is retro classic. It was recorded well,
    sounds nice and rich.
    Man I dont know all I know is the Marantz is still in the shop.
    And considering the Marantz retails for 2500.00 there is no excuse for such shoddy quality my Pioneer elite was still going strong after 10 years of use.
    the only thing that kept me from going with another Elite was they do not offer a pre pro unit. After the theft I wanted to start fresh this time with all separates.
    Although I had the Elite set up as a pre amp it still had built in amplifiers
    I did not want the new setup to have any amplifiers built in.
    Onkyo can do NO wrong. None.
    I'm stunned the Marantz is bad. But can it be a such thing as getting a BAD high end unit?
    Got the Onkyo all hooked up last Friday man o man what a nice unit.
    Now I am just waiting for the Marantz to get out of the shop so I can sell it.
    OH and the Onkyo is made in Malaysia not Japan oh well I still think its a better unit.
    click pic for full size and then agian for supper size

    Just an FYI the Marantz AV8003 it total junk
    The first unit lasted all of 3 days Marantz replaced since it failed within 30 days the replacement one lasted 2 months so I had to send it in on my dime shipping got it back the center channel went out within two hours had to send it in again on my dime and its been the shop now for 2 weeks.
    So I ordered an Onkyo PR-SC5507 it will be here Friday and when I get the Marantz back from the shop this time selling it on Ebay as a buy it now for 1200.00 free shipping lower 48 states and throw in a transferable 5 year extended warranty that aught to get it sold.
    Shame really I was hoping the Marantz reputation and quality was what it once was.
    But it was made in China even their top of the line equipment
    while the Onkyo top flight stuff is still made in Japan.
    Yeah early model is for the older cars Late model is for new cars
