If I'm not mistaken, the 3200 is a pre-amp only. Did you have a PA in mind? Perhaps a nice 140? That would do the trick.

Thanks ClusterChuck and yes, my intent is to combine the 3200+140+110. I just want to be sure that this would be a sweet match for the large Advents. This would complete my "vintage" system. Thanks again, much appreciated!

Disclosure: it's been more than 40+ years since hearing Marantz muscle behind Large Advents, but in romantic memory of the experience, I'd have to say HELL YES, the Model 110 should be a very nice mate to the Large Advent.

Out of curiosity, are you using - or going for - the original or New Large Advent? Intending on using stands? Plan on implementing crossover refresh/mods?

At the cosmetic level, it's difficult to imagine a more beautiful vintage system. At the sonic level, you should be very pleased.

Welcome, and post pics of your progress!

PS, here's a temporary set up of a little Marantz/Advent combo. :)

Hey ClusterChuck, yes I have a set of the original Large Advents that are mint and so, to your point, I am building a nice sonic and cosmetic vintage system. When complete, i will be sure to post pics. Thanks again!!
 
Still have the 1070 and Advent combo bought new in the 70's.
Always worked for me. The 1070 is in combo with a 170DC power those Advents and a pair of Snell's.

Would think your intentions of Advent 3200 140 110 is a good place to start a vintage system.
