Hmm, those look familiar....Wonder if they're the same family. Don't know about the difference in part numbers.
Same family.... 150W 180V 15A per device, am interested to know what set that come out of...

WOW, so the 120W per side rating of the 909 is VERY conservative !!!!

That Marantz impresses me... (not often that happens) if i get to hear one, i certainly will be paying attention
anything fitted w/ those sankens at factory must be a topliner or not far from the flagship of its series
As for the V909 - yes RARE as they get, rivaled only by the elusive SE-A1 (tho i prefer the A3MK2)

Well - just wait till your eyes get's older - you'll hate the black things everytime you'r flashlight runs outta batteries.
I have to similar tapedecks - one for day use, one for night
not kidding
well .... maybe a little

It was the flagship receiver that followed the 2600. Not quite the powerhouse the 2600 was, but I think they did the right thing and concentrated on sound quality over raw power.
Their first digital tuner, pre-sets, and plenty of power. It has a very sweet sound to it. I don't quite care for colored sound, but I guess the best way I can describe this receiver is musical. Anything I play on it sounds rather enjoyable.
And yes, their cd players with the TDA 1540/1 and CDM-0/1 are top notch even today. I have a pair of CD-73s, a CD-94, and CDA-94 that give top end players a run for their money.
