I would like to make this clear

I plan on keeping and using my Latino ST-70 for as long as I live.

Originally I got the Marantz 250M because it held a soft spot in my heart. It was made the year I graduated high school and it was something I DROOLED over when I was young. Being an old Marantz fan - I wanted at least one vintage Marantz piece to possibly use or, at the very least, just to look at.

I honestly never expected it to sound anywhere as good as it does. So bonus points there.

Now I can enjoy using my tube amp in the winter and my Marantz in the dead of summer. I use my Sherwood S-5000 (a smallish tube integrated amp) in the in between seasons.
