Post Your Marantz Gear Here!!!

Marantz 2275 recapped and sounding lovely. Built a new cabinet to show it off and keep the audio footprint tight in my townhouse. The face plate has a few blemishes, might try out a black replacement in the near future. Enjoyed listening to this in the garage on my Yamaha NS 690’s that I picked up a few months ago for $70 from an estate sale while I was building the cabinet. Now I’ve got to find another Marantz for the garage…

Nice cabinet! The 2275's look very good with a black face plate... I don't remember exactly who I bought this one from, someplace in Germany is all I recall:

I got lucky during a time. When vintage stuff wasn't as sought out after.

Here are just some of the Marantz gear I've had during the past 14 years. I've also owned a beautiful 2285 receiver, Model 18 receiver and the infamous 1060/110 amplifier-tuner combo! The 20B tuner was fantastic, but I wasn't using it and sold it back in 2010! I found the 5020 at a local thrift store back in 2020 for $15! I completely restored it and was proud of how well it worked. All I have left is my beautiful Baby Marantz 2010! I've already recapped the power supply and output caps, along with the power supply filter cap. I recently purchased a recap kit for all the boards, except for what I've already done, and just need to find the time to get it done! My "Baby" Marantz is wonderful!

Well it is harder and harder to purcase some nice gear at bargain... Everything wearing a Marantz badge, worth a fortune in sellers eyes&brains.
I ve got some luck during the time, but engraved 2270 could be sky high. It is the only item to finish my collection. 2215,2230,2245 are safe&sound.

I like the "B" models.

I picked up this 2250b at a garage sale over 10 years ago. Put it in my garage connected to some paradigm 5se speakers and never looked at it again. It had a broken power switch, several burnt out lights and just the metal/vinyl cover when I got it. FF to today.... following a divorce and all the expensive, modern gear in the house was liquidated, this receiver became the daily driver in the house. Seeing how I had ignored it for so long I treated it to new LED's, a power switch and most recently a new reproduction cabinet from Germany. I also set the basic idle current, voltage and offset as per the manual. She sounds wonderful and is just beautiful! I am in the cue to get a complete restoration from a local tech who has a 6 month waiting list. I also own a Yamaha CR820 which is a very nice piece as well.

Beautiful restoration! One of my favorites. The Yamaha is sweet too.

Just joined the Marantz club. Ordered a supposedly like new 2220B from the ‘bay and it should be here in a few days. All original, looks like new, all original manuals and paperwork included. Pictures when it arrives.
