Hello all. A little about me, and how I attain most of my gear. I manage 2 storage facilities and 4 commercial properties. A little over 500 tenants. About 480 of which know my hobby, or, obsession. It doesn’t hurt that I am able to have a system in my office where I spin vinyl daily. This is a great conversation starter. Yes, I am a ‘make it happen’ guy. Often, I receive said items free, as they were on there way to drop them off at a thrift anyway. Although I have others, I am a Marantzaholic.
About 7 weeks ago, a potential tenant came into the office. He saw my system asked about it, and I told him i collect vintage audio especially Marantz. He stated he had a Marantz 2325 and asked if I would be interested. Sure,I replied calmly. He says I’ll bring it in. 7 weeks go by and i forgot all about it. Not. He shows up, I open the door, as I see the faceplate plastic protector, WC-43, I wonder how much is in my wallet. He offers to plug it in. I reply, after asking if it has been used in the last 10 yrs or more, and noticing the cord plug, no. Got it, original manual and schematic, very reasonable. I doubt it has ever been out of its case. Beautiful aesthetically, a good start. I’ll open it up tomorrow, we’ll see. Lucky, yes, but, you have to make it happen.
