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

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

Mark Korda, Audio magazine's June '97 issue contained that Anthony H. Cordesman review of Marantz's re-issue Model 7 Preamp & Model 9 Mono Amp. Which was his "first true high-end system", powering original Quad electrostatic speakers. Cordesman surmised, "after 40 years, the Model 7 & Model 9 designs hold up well against the latest tube preamps & amps. The new Model 7 & Model 9 are extraordinary tributes to the design skills of Sid Smith & Saul Marantz & to the work of VAC's Kevin Hayes in helping to re-create the original designs & manufacturing methods". 73s para Sactown
