Sending off this 4400 to wlhd1610 for anther rebuild. Was curious if anyone knew how the phono section was on these. Here's the before pics. Guy was using in his garage. You can see where he dropped it so the face was damaged. Looking forward to Bobs labor ( results not cost lol)!

Funny i just compared the phono section on this receiver and some others for 6 months, it resulted in buying a $129 Schiit Mani phono pre, A 4400 with a budget outboard pre amp is fantastic. I felt the stock 4400 was good until i switched it out after a few months with other preamps, and just my opinion but stock was not up to the sound the receiver is capable of. With the phono pre figured out , my 4400 is good enough to be the top dog in my vinyl listening hobby! Good luck nice receiver! Certainly the heaviest, most awkward to carry receiver i have ever handled, its no wonder many of them have bent corners lol.
 
Just ordered it. Will give it a try on the Marantz 4400, wlhd1610 is rebuilding the phono section so I'll give it an AB when I get it. Thanks Again!!
 
I really like 4400s once they're restored, fine sounding receiver.

Here's a teaser of what you can expect when you get your 4400 back, and maybe consider a black faceplate since yours is trashed.

Curious is that a European version? I know Pioneer has one that's black which designates it is from Europe.
