[PRODUCT INFORMATION]
- Manufacturer: Marantz
- Model: Model 7T
- Type: Stereo Preamplifier
- Release Year: 1965
- This is a historic solid-state (transistor) stereo preamplifier. It follows the circuit configuration of the legendary vacuum tube preamplifier 'Model 7C' and is Marantz's first transistorized preamplifier.
- It was one of the last high-quality Marantz products produced at the US factory in New York before production shifted to Japan.
- Technical Innovation: Early transistor amplifiers of the era often had a harsh sound and distortion. Marantz engineers adopted the Complimentary Feedback Pair (CFP) circuit to achieve thorough low impedance and low distortion, successfully maintaining a dynamic soundstage.

[KEY SPECIFICATIONS]
- Frequency Response: 20 Hz – 20 kHz (±1 dB)
- Total Harmonic Distortion (THD): Less than 0.05% (at 1V RMS output)
- S/N Ratio: 100 dB (Line Input), 80 dB (Phono Input)
- Operation: Pure Class A for all internal amplification blocks.

[FEATURES]
- Controls: Features heavy-duty machined aluminum knobs for volume, balance, input selection, and stepped tone controls (bass and treble) for independent fine adjustment.
- Inputs: Equipped with 8 input terminals in total. Includes 2 phono inputs with selectable equalizer curves for older standards (78 RPM, RIAA, LP).
- Front Panel Jack: A jack for tape deck connection on the front panel allows for easy connection of external equipment for recording and playback without needing to access the rear.
- Center Channel Output: Variable center channel output on the rear, mixing A+B signals, reflecting the era's need to supplement center audio in the transition from mono to stereo.
