    That system's been listed for quite a while. Looks like the price just got lowered a bit.

    That does look like a badass rig. The blue chassis's don't really do it for me though personally. It'd look better if the blue parts were chrome IMO.

    If someone wants to buy them for me though, I think I could manage to live with the blue.;)

    I'll take that! That's a beautiful vintage Marantz setup. Has some of the most desirable Marantz pieces around.

    Someday I'm planning on putting together a secondary 2 channel rig, using vintage Marantz separates and my Monitor 7A's. I doubt I'll be getting any of those pieces though...lol

    They'd look a lot better if they weren't blue.

    Man, I'd sure like to get my ears on those amps! I can almost feel the goose bumps already.

    I don't mind the blue, especially as the clear over powder coat looks loyal. It would be an everlasting finish.
