I just scored an itty-bitty 2015 on the auction site for use in my camper trailer (gotta take the addiction with me!) It's by far the smallest Marantz I've ever owned, and I usually don't care for tiny amps that require a separate powered sub, but I kinda like the sound of this little fella. It does a fine job of driving a small pair of Audio Engine bookshelf speakers.
I just finished cleaning the controls, replacing all the incandescents with LEDs, replacing the speaker terminals, calibrating the offsets, and re-capping it with Nichicon Fine Golds (excluding the PS, and I missed the meter...) After my recent 4300 project, this one was a total cake walk!
Unfortunately, the one problem all of the above didn't solve was weak output / distortion on the right channel when it's in FM mode. Selecting mono immediately resolves the audible symptoms FWTW. Any ideas? Thanks!
