[Music in a bottle]

I guess a lot of us in 'our' age group FINALLY get the chance to have that Marantz (mine is a Sansui 8080DB) that we couldn't afford back when they were the thing. I gave up on the sports cars.

My first Marantz was only a receiver back then, and it actually cost far less than what they go for on e bay at the present! I'm astonished at the prices. Right now, I'm restoring electronically, a marantz model 15 dual mono block amp, a model 7t preamp, and a model 115B tuner. I run a pair of Dahlquist DQ10s and together, the set up sounds unbelievable! I paid dearly for the model 15 and 7t, but they are show room condition right now, with the original wood cabinets, and paperwork and manuals!
