Marantz SA10 SACD Player Advertising my Marantz SA10 for sale, as I’m considering upgrading to an Esoteric player. Unit is pretty much pristine condition, no scratches or dents. Have the remote, manual, box & packing (so shipping is possible). Reasonable use between this, my TT and Streaming. Would have seen more Redbook CD’s as I don’t have a lot of SACD’s. Still in the rack hence the photos, but can demo if interested.

Condition unknown makes this one hard to bless outright, but A$5,600 is still on the strong side versus the used SA-10 market in Australia. Recent asking prices I can find cluster roughly around A$5,900–A$6,300 for used units, with some higher outliers, so this sits a touch under the going band rather than looking ambitious.
The appeal is the player itself: the SA-10 is one of Marantz’s flagship disc spinners, widely respected for its smooth, refined presentation and very serious CD/SACD performance. At this price, it makes the most sense if it’s clean, fully functional, and ideally comes with the remote, original packaging, and proof of careful ownership; those details matter more here than on a budget deck.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Marantz originated in the United States, founded in 1953 by Saul Bernard Marantz, a music enthusiast and amateur musician born in Brooklyn in 1911. Dissatisfied with the audio equipment of the era, he crafted the groundbreaking Audio Consolette preamplifier in 1952 from his New York home, selling the first 100 units rapidly and prompting the formal establishment of the company in Woodside, Queens. Though production later shifted to Japan in partnership with manufacturers like Standard Radio in 1966, and the brand evolved through ownership changes including Superscope and eventual integration into larger groups, its heritage remains rooted in American ingenuity and a relentless pursuit of musical fidelity.
The brand excels in high-end audio components, particularly amplifiers, preamplifiers, and integrated systems that defined its golden era. Iconic models like the Model 7 preamplifier (1958), Model 9 power amplifier (1960), and Model 10B tuner (1964) set benchmarks for performance, while later offerings expanded to tuners, receivers, and CD players. Marantz briefly ventured into speakers under designer Ed May in the 1970s but focused primarily on electronics rather than turntables, headphones, DACs, or cables, emphasizing separates renowned for their "Most Musical Sound."
Marantz commands a premium position in the hi-fi market, revered as a high-end pioneer that shaped the audiophile landscape through the 1970s zenith. Today, it blends vintage allure with modern elegance, appealing to discerning buyers who value durability, innovation, and warm, detailed sound signatures over mass-market accessibility.
