Marantz 7 tube preamp & Marantz 9 mono 70w amps in my vintage time-machine stereo chain

Incredible!!!thanks for posting this!

Wow!---Super rare and collectible... and crazy good. I have the model 9s smaller brother---a nicely tweaked Marantz 8B operating in triode with GE 6CA7 tubes. I'll never part with it.

Beautiful gear. I once had a 7C and Model 9s, but a Korean collector waved way too much money in my face for me to resist. I kept the 10b tuner, but it's gone now too. I still have lots of cool stuff however.

I have a Marantz 8B amp with parts upgrade and love it to pieces.

Ciao. Sono di Roma, quello che vedi nel filmato è un SL8, ma su un TD150 ho anche un SL8e con Decca London....

[sparagagna]

Grande sistema, cercavo qualcuno che usasse il Rabco come me, complimenti! Di dove sei? Mi piacerebbe autoinvitarmi per un ascolto...

Buone Feste!

[antoine742003]

wow....

[mcintoshamps]

hey is that a mcintosh 275???

can you give me a comment of comparision between 275 to marantz 9?

what one sounds better what speakers are u using

i have a pair of mc30 with sansui speakers and for me sounds great and loud

my room is verry small

nice setup one of the best vintage from youtube!! congratulations

@mcintoshamps Hi. Yes, it's a 1964 Mc275. In my opinion perfect with Klipsch hi-efficiency spkrs like my La Scala's: GREAT mid/hi frequencies response (horns....). With those speakers M9's are anyway ok, but the sound is a little bit too "open". Marantz is perfect with lo-efficiency speakers (AR3, Rogers, Dahlquist DQ10) with GREAT deep low frequencies transient response and very detailed mid/hi. But a friend of mine owns M9's & K/Horns with PERFECT results.... MC30 are great amps! TKS

@mcintoshamps in a comparison A/B with same pre, source and speakers, the Macs sounds a little bright to me. I've sold my macs (Mc-275 Comm.Ed., C-220). IMHO, Marantz, Dynaco and Manley sounds closer to real sound, natural human voice, etc. It is a matter of taste, obviously. I have friends that love them.

[grabngonuts]

This system is heavenly.

lucky dog!

[theinsectmachine666]

Woww..

Nicest setup i have ever seen. Great..

What lp is the Salt Peanuts from sir?

Greetings from norway..

[tony2four]

Hello. You can find Salt Peanuts also in Charlie Parker's - The Complete Savoy and Dial Studio Recordings 1944-1948 remastered CD Box. Thanks for your interest in my hi-fi system. Kind Regards. Tony

[tony2four]

Yes. Expensive in the 60's, expensive now. It is a "same family owner" system. When my father bought the Marantz 9 pair in the 1964, a single amp was priced in Italy like a Fiat 500 small car (480.000 lire).....

[dogs4dylan]

Model 9s go can go for 15 g a pair. With that preamp i bet that system is worth 20,000.

[apantale]

Great vintage equipment with a nice sounding 125 with that Rabco. I have never heard that tonearm played before. Or is that your R2R that is running "Salt Peanuts"? Anyways, I absolutely enjoyed it. You are making me want to get more vintage audio stuff which will just make my wife more whacky!! I guess I could get myself in trouble with other hobbies, but hey, vinyl and tubes are my passion!!
