Marantz 1550L receiver from 1978 in excellent condition and perfect working order. Came from a recent estate sale and was dry stored in the house. We have internally cleaned all of the rotary controls and selectors with switch cleaner to ensure they are all noise free. The exterior has been deep cleaned, the facia is in excellent mark free condition. Sadly in previous ownership the MID tone control knob has been knocked off and in turn broken off the spindle. As far as we can tell it was set to the mid position, it is the only issue and could be rectified at a later time with the new owner. Parts from these receivers are always on eBay and I think that these late 1970s receivers shared parts. The sound quality is excellent and all the features work as they should. We have tested all the inputs including phono by connecting a turntable, they are all 100% All of the speaker outlets for system 1 and system 2 are also fully working. The tuning scale and meters light up in blue, super cool. The receiver has been bench tested over the last 3 days and not missed a beat. We have been listening to vinyl, tapes and streaming from our phone via an RCA lead. Despite a missing control knob this is a superb example, designed in California and made in Japan. Some sellers are asking north of 1K so have priced mine at a realistic price point.
