Thanks everyone! If anyone is curious, I was using a Pioneer SX-680 until this past weekend. I found a pretty good deal at a local flea market. I got a Marantz 2245 for $20. The guy that I got it from also had some Marantz tape decks and other Pioneer gear, but I had already spent most of my money on albums that day so the 2245 was my only purchase.
There are a few minor problems with it, but I believe it was well worth $20!
By minor problems, I mean that there is a little static when adjusting knobs, burned out light(s) on tuner, and one of the input jacks not working. Nothing too major and a good cleaning will definitely help

Thanks everyone! I am pretty sure that I have a new addiction now! Quick update for anyone who missed it in the Thrift Store finds thread. I went back to the flea market this Saturday and the guy mentioned above was there again. I nearly ran over to him and checked to see if he still had the other gear. He did! Here is what I got from him this weekend:
Pioneer TX 7800 tuner
Pioneer SA 8800 amp
Pioneer CT F950 tape deck
Marantz SD 8000 tape deck
Marantz 5220 tape deck
DeWald P 1400 tube amp
I got all of this for $60. Not bad!
