Here it goes, I had restored 2 of these, one is for sale. Sounds great, may need some to burn in a bit longer. The only remark, unit has no feet.

Looking to get $450 shipped, paypal as gift

It will be very well protected and packed.

    Plenty of great choices for aftermarket feet available these days.

    Those Mundorf M-Lytic caps are excellent.

    Thanks, the M-lytics are cool caps. Also, the AMRG carbon film resistors I added on the preamp inputs they sound really good and Marantzey.

    original feet can be purchased on ebay for $10 as well. I had it in a wood case that sold separately.

    This a great sounding little receiver. I thought there was no better sounding than this... well until I tried better :D

    the midrange has there's something sweet very particular to these units. As mentioned above I will packet very well, I usually add 3 layers of styrofoam besides the bubble wrap and cardboard corner protections.

    This was my first venture into something other then a receiver. Realistic sta 820 then this marantz. From memory i agree about that mid having a warm magic. Nice work on the restore.

    I had to pick up feet for one of mine a few years back. Google search will pull of many choices for not much money.
