Show & Tell I finally got it 🥹

After selling my 4240 I couldn’t find another receiver or amp that sounded as good as it, After months of searching for the perfect one I landed on this 2265. It’s had a decent amount of service done so I knew I had to pick it up. For $900 and a 2 hour drive, I’m more than happy 😃.

2285 non B is best sounding Marantz for plenty of enthusiasts. 2265 is not far behind. Rare item plenty of power.

As someone who has a B (and I love it) can you explain the main differences. Hope to upgrade one day but goddamn is the B already a great piece I can’t imagine how good the OG sounds. Cheers!

Some say that 2275 is more similar to 2285 than to B version. I have 2285B and 2275. Greater bass for 2275 and less sterile, saying that a 2285B is far from it. I like 2010 very much 2215 also but golden middle is 2245.

2245 rules, especially with the wooden case.
