There was a time when music systems were built not just to play sound, but to create an experience. The Marantz 2245, introduced in the early 1970s, is a perfect example of that philosophy.

With its iconic blue dial glow, solid aluminum faceplate, and real walnut cabinet, the 2245 captures the essence of vintage hi-fi design. But beyond its looks lies what truly made Marantz legendary—a warm, rich, and musical sound signature that brings life and emotion into every recording.

At 45 watts per channel, the Marantz 2245 is not about brute force—it’s about balance. It delivers smooth midrange, controlled bass, and soft, detailed highs that make long listening sessions effortless and enjoyable. Whether you're spinning vinyl or playing classic recordings, the 2245 presents music in a way that feels natural and engaging.

This unit has been fully serviced and restored, carefully brought back to reliable working condition while preserving its original character. It’s not just a receiver—it’s a piece of audio history, ready to be enjoyed again.

Includes 1-Year Warranty.
