Hi David,
It was a pleasure having you over to my house and I hope the baby marantz that I sent you home to try is doing well. Just remember that it's a loaner marantz to play around with LOL!! And the cigar was Fantastic. Welcome to Greenville SC.

Thank you...the Baby Marantz sounds amazing after it warms up.

I was wondering about setting up a blind speaker testing session with Mark at Don Jones and other audiophiles in Greenville? I'd like to listen to a variety of speakers without knowing which ones they are and see what sounds the best. Do you think Mark would go for this?

 

[Smitty43]

All you can do is ask! Mark is a great guy and will help in any way possible as he has always done for me for years.

Well, I am well on my way to fixing vintage stereos. Over the weekend I finally finished putting my Technics SA-616 back together and completing a full maintenance for my Technics SL-D2 turntable. But after hearing the Marantz, I'm hooked on the Marantz sound. Next project is to troubleshoot a popping sound on the Marantz 2235B receiver I purchased on ebay. This is while I wait for some new pots and capacitors for the AR3a speakers I purchased in Greenville at Don Jones stereo.

What a fun hobby when you finally hear the sound come through the speakers without the crack and the pops from the aging components. A lot of work but rewarding...
