I HATE that I have to sell this piece, but I need to fund two amp purchases somehow. It's in great condition cosmetically and is fully functional. The previous owner had it serviced and some capacitors were replaced to keep it running for years to come. It sounds phenomenal. The bulbs have been recently replaced as well. I have it listed for $275 on craigslist and the Polkie price is $200.

Deal is local only. I can deliver anywhere in San Diego County. It's a heavy beast.

Here is all the info you'll ever need: http://www.classic-audio.com/marantz/2245.html

    My goodness, what was I thinking. I took a listen this morning and realized I can't let this one go. Such a sweet, smooth, and pleasant sound. Mods please remove this thread.

    When you decide to sell it again, I'll take it.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
