Marantz 2285b fit WC-22

will it fit

If the main body is under 5 1/8 a 2285 will fit in a WC-22 case one difference is that the feet holes are no longer used to secure the case as they are in the wrong place but I see from the photos that there are other holes you can use to secure the case they look to be the same area as the WC-22Thanks tomefs

to all you guys using cases - is there any truth to the rumor that they make the receiver run hotter and shorten the lifespan of caps and whatnot? I'd really really like to get (or make) a wood case for my 2285 but I don't want to hurt the receiver in anyway.

Do you take off the metal case for better cooling or leave it on so you don't lose it? Thanks.

Hey Ernie,

How different is the WC-122 from the WC-22s? Was I wrong when I said it was the "side panel" type case?

Thanks,
Carl

It's a three-piece suit for the Marantz; top and two sides. You take the regular side screws out of the metal cabinet, and use the included, longer screws to attach the dress-up kit. Mine is currently not in use, as the young lady doesn't want it on the 2252B, and that is her primary system.

No, it is not for sale.

I was just making sure what I said was correct. That the WC-122 is in fact what I was calling a "side panel" case with screw on sides.

Thanks!
:D
 
my 2252B fits beautifully in the wc-22 (even though ti calls for the wc-122 dress up kit) - the only catch is the holes in the rear do not line up; as such, only the front two screws are in place - but this is all it really needs - not like i move it around much!

my metal top is off, and i do not find it to run too hot (especially with the 250 power amp in place).
