Home Vintage Asylum

Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

IMHO they were made by VAC under contract from Marantz...

Which is different than Mac who actually make the repros in house. The original Macs were point-to point wired and all of the recent iterations use circuit boards. Many prefer the new Mac to the vintage. I always found the 240 to be a hazy amp in stock form; the original 275 and 225 are both cracking good. I have had both a Marantz 8 and an 8B here and was not overly taken with either.
