    Need help on Marantz 2275

    I am recapping and restoring a Marantz 2275. While changing the lamps, I needed to change the lamp holder as the old one had melted due to excessive heat I guess from the original lamps. I took pictures but deleted them showing the wiring on the new lamp holder. Can someone show a picture of...

    2275: broken J708 wire on P700 board

    Just picked up a 2275 and am in the process of recapping (first attempt) and while working on the P700 power amp board the white wire that connects to the J708 pin snapped off. I removed the remaining wound up wire. Before I noticed it after my recap, I was testing and there was no output. Now...

    Suitable Speaker recommendation for my recent purchased marantz 2275

    I found a Marantz 2275 at a garage sale a few years ago. I got a Kenwood turntable with it. I am slowly returning these babies to vintage glory. Now I want to find a nice set of floor speakers to compliment the 2275 performance. C-V? KEF? Ideas anyone? Thxs.

    2275 Intermittent left channel loss. new-to-me reciever

    I saved a 2275 from the neighbors trash and it works well but I'll randomly lose the left channel. I've had it apart 3 times, deoxit'd the pots, balance slider etc. Nothing too crazy. It'll work, but I don't know what makes the left come back on and why it goes out. I played it all day today...

    Subwoofer with Vintage 2 Channel Receiver Marantz

    I recently added a Definitive Pro Sub 800 to give just a little extra boost in the low end. My room is an average size living room with a vaulted ceiling which makes sound set up a challenge on it's own. My set up is a Marantz 2275 / 2 channel receiver running a pair of ELAC Debut 6 2.0...

    I am working on restoring a Marantz 2275. It has several issues that I am working through.... One of the issues was that the bass knob doesn't click between settings, it is continuously smooth. So I took out the tone board and see the back half of the pot sitting there. Luckily none of the...

    Can You Say 'Lucky' - How did I do?

    Just had to share this bit of luck. Been after a friend of mine for a long time to part with a 1070 he has so he knows my interest in Marantz. Last week he tells me he has an old friend who has a Marantz for sale. A couple of emails later we arrange to meet at his place 45 minutes away and today...

    Running A&B Speakers - Damaging?

    I have a Marantz 2275 with a pair of Paradigm 5se's on the A side and a pair of JBL L1's on the B side. I find running both A&B produces a nice full sound in my listening room at say a 50-60% volume setting. I'm wondering if running both A&B speakers for expended periods is likely to cause any...

    Marantz 2275 fuse popping and no left channel

    Well first this 2275 had no left channel. So we recapped pretty much everything but the FM boards. Still no left channel. So we checked the B+, it was fine (35 V). Then on the main amp boards DC offset we adjusted R741 to the correct value, all is well. Then, on the idle current adjustment...
