No affiliation, and not running out in the snow to take a peek--got enough stuff already.

If it has life left or is serviceable, that Carver CD player is a good sounding unit.

Marantz Collectors' Edition? That's a joke, right??

For this Marantz gear, this was definitely from after their halcyon days, the slide into oblivion had begun already.

Just never seen Marantz that looked like that... Not interested--sure it is just about almost BPC. just silver, but wondered.

Then came the Century Collection which was most definitely BPC.

What is that, 80s maybe? Reminds me a bit of other post-silver-face but pre-BPC era stuff.

The only thing worth mentioning from that lot is the Carver CD player

 

[swechsler]

Anything that calls itself a "collectors edition" is anything but that.

^^ Well that's quite often the case isn't it.

Is there such a thing as SPC ? Silver painted crap?

Apparently Like I stated--not interested at all, but had never seen anything like it (at least with a Marantz name on it).--I be learnin'

I have that same Marantz stack and take offense to the harsh remarks about it....

It's my garage setup minus the tape deck. It's gold anodized aluminum, so I guess that makes it GAC.
