THIS UNIT HAS BEEN PLAYED BUT IT LOOKS AND PLAYS LIKE NEW!IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, THESE MARANTZ SOLID STATE AMPLIFIERS ARE ONE OF THE BEST SOUNDING VINTAGE HOME AUDIO UNITS EVER MADE!THE MARANTZ ADVERTISING TAG LINE IS: "MARANTZ, WE SOUND BETTER". AND, ITIS TRUE, THEY DO!This Marantz is an Excellent example both Cosmetically and Functionally. I installed all OEM spec White incandescent lamps and completely detailed the entire unit and Recapped where needed!One, Rare model, Marantz 2245 Receiver / Amplifier.I sell at least one Marantz Receiver, once a month, sometimes as many as 3 a month and every time I list one on Reverb, they sell in a matter of days!And, this is the last one of this model that I have in my warehouse that is ready to go!If interested in It, DON'T WAIT! YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOPINTED!IF YOU MISS IT, YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED! Pure Focused Marantz Sound in a small package. The Phono Stage on this unit for playing your record albums is rich and deep! This Marantz has been completely gone through, Cleaned and Detailed. This receiver has seen very little use! This is one of the Cleanest and Best Sounding smaller Wattage amplifiers I have ever seen or heard! I guarantee you will be pleased with its appearance and performance! I did a recap where needed and installed new transistor and resistor where needed! Very little were needed!In 1977, this Marantz was Rated at 45 watts per channel Into 8 Ω, 52 watts into 4 Ω . In the past, audio technicians always underrated the output wattage of these amplifiers. I've been doing this a long time and this Marantz is driving 100dB 100Watt floor standing speakers with amazing results. With a pair of high efficiency speakers, this Amplifier sounds more like a modern 150 Watt amp or More!I guarantee you will be pleased with the output wattage of this Rare, Vintage Marantz Amplifier /Receiver. Cosmetically, this amp looks Excellent. Functionally Mint, Fully functional, Everything works and works well. Recently Cleaned and Serviced! Amazing Sound! No Scratchy pots, knobs, or sliders. No background Noise, No Hum!In General, what follows are the shipping parameters! Please Note:This following shipping timetable is a guideline and not set in stone. Extenuating circumstance from the shipper or from my personal life can sometimes delay shipment. Things like delays due to Covid-19 which impacts staff shortages and supply chains, multiple buys on this platform in a short amount of time for example, 10 items sold in a 7-day period, or the illness of a child or my own illness or a fire or flood or an earthquake. I understand that most of the latter types of these occurrences are rare. But, even Huge insurance companies allow for Force Majeure (look it up). And, please understand that I am only one person and if you want the rare vintage item you bought to arrive in the same condition it left me, it will take time to pack it and ship it right! And, if something happens like an extenuating circumstance, it will take a little more time to ship! Thank you for your understanding!So, in general, if bought and paid for Monday through Thursday, I will ship out within 72 hours (business days, not Weekends). If bought Friday, Saturday or Sunday I will ship out no later than the following Wednesday! I don't quickly or sloppily pack and ship. I agonize over picking the proper packing materials and proper boxes which I buy for the item AFTER the item is sold. I have dozens of vintage audio items available for sale and I DO NOT HAVE THEM PACKED AND READY FOR SHIPMENT BEFORE THEY ARE SOLD, I DON'T DO IT LIKE THAT! I AM NOT AMAZON OR A LARGE ONLINE COMPANY, I AM A SOLE PROPRIETOR OF A LARGE COLLECTION OF VINTAGE AUDIO ITEMS THAT MY FAMILY COLLECTED OVER 60 YEARS. When you receive your turntable in the same condition as it left me, you will thank me! Please, look at my feedback regarding Packing and Shipping! Price is Firm! However, the price is Negotiable If you buy 2 or more of my Reverb items concurrently.Ships from San Marcos, CA. Packed safely and securely. I ALWAYS use the (RSS) Reverb Safe Shipping option when shipping an item I have sold in order to protect both you and me, I typically lose money on shipping because of this because RSS costs money. The more rare or valuable an item is, the more it costs to insure! In addition, I don't ship quickly or cheaply. Why sloppily throw a vintage receiver in Excellent condition into a box or poorly wrap it so it gets damaged in transit? I DO NOT DO THAT! I am meticulous with my packaging and I agonize over choosing the proper box that is ideal for each unit. Boxes, especially ones that are the correct dimensions for the item at hand are not always easy to come by. I use high quality double walled electronics boxes especially made for shipping vintage items of this type and if one box in the proper size is unavailable, I use TWO single walled corrugated cardboard boxes, putting one box with the unit in it INSIDE another larger box with even more packing material to fully protect the unit and that especially can be costly.So, the Price is Firm! However, the price is Negotiable if you bundle and buy 2 or more of my Reverb items concurrently! Thanks ; )
