I believe they are shorting plugs. I guess I'm not sure of the purpose. Is it to eliminate hum when the inputs are not being used?
Thanks! I likely will need lots of help if I tackle this myself.I've done one of these - full rebuild. The build quality inside is top notch. PM me if you need any pictures or info.
The 250's are REAL tricky. Look up the post of my 250M restoration.Thanks! I likely will need lots of help if I tackle this myself.
You and your quad gear. I'm gonna up and surprise you one of these days. In fact, this seller had a non-working 4230 he was selling for $100. I didn't see the unit, but I told him I wasn't really interested right now.bummer sorry to hear that. maybe you should get a 4140 in the meantime to fill the wait
Steve,Thanks for the kind words. I knew from the beginning that I would have to have a wood case, because all of my Marantz units have wood cases. It's a WC-1, which is nearly unobtainium. So.....I bought one off of the auction site from a gentleman in.....Serbia. Good reviews and it will be custom made for the footprint of the 1200 bottom holes as measured by me. Won't be quick - maybe 4-6 weeks. But his pics and reviews make me think it will be worth it. I'll let you know if I get had twice on the same unit.
I might be interested in your project. Looks like the 1120 also uses the wc-1 case.My wc-1 should be ready by May.... I will post photos when they are done....
It will either be modified JBL L-100s (modern crossovers) or Klipsch Fortes with Crites upgrades. I prefer the JBL’s for rock (my main genre).and the Klipsch for everything else. I’ll have both the 1200 and the 2325 set up with turntables so I can go either way.Very lovely looking amplifier. You will enjoy that for years to come.
What speakers are you running it with?
