Marantz 2230 Vintage Receiver w/ Stunning Wood Case

This is a gorgeous example of one of Marantz's most popular receivers of the time: the solid state model 2230.  In 1972 when it was introduced, the 2230 was the darling of the mid-fi audio world.  At a very accessible price point, the receiver packed a number of necessary features for the time: A fantastic AM and FM Stereo tuner, a tape loop, MM phono input, and aux input.  It also features a pre-out/main-in loop which is useful for outboard processors, EQs, or additional power amps.  

This classic delivers 30 watts per channel of smooth, clean power with a balanced and super detailed soundstage. Excellent textures on all instruments, super present mids for vocals and accurate tight bass for all genres of music.  Back in the day this was an unbeatable combination of sound and style.

This would be an excellent piece for a living room perched on top of a MCM credenza & pairs well with pretty much all mid century decor. Without question one of the cleanest 2230's we've ever seen. This has been serviced, restored and appears super clean; and comes complete with the walnut veneered walnut case which just sets it off in the most perfect way. 

This is a super find and a "do not miss!"
